You may be thinking of my website, at
http://members.aol.com/goodrichdn/
where one can download a good-size collection of cone 6 recipes from various
sources. Just look near the bottom of the home page. However, many are
Gerstley-based, and thus out of fashion unless you've stocked up in prevous
years or know good substitutions. If you take out the GB, that leaves less
then 200 recipes...

As for the celadon, try using Floating Blue at ^6, then refiring to cone
04. Looks like a celadon on my stoneware.

I'm searching for the following glazes:

A good dark green, glossy or not

A good pale green, like a celadon, glassy or not

A good matte turquoise, w/o barium

I fire to a hard cone 6, in oxidation (electric kiln).

Also, I used to have a link to someone on Clayart's webpage, where he
listed about a million cone 6 glaze recipes. I've lost the link and
would LOVE to have it again -

Any & all help appreciated - feel free to email me off list.

If you do that, is it still foodsafe?
