It is tiring to repeat the same thing all the time. Read them if you
need more explanation you can write me of list to
ababisharon@hormail.com or sharon@shoval.org.il

I suggest that you put the opal etc above a clear low alumina glaze. If
you buy, or do not know what is such a glaze test you opal/floating or
similar above some clear glazes, on a test tileon different claybodies
stoware, white buff dark and porcelain. If the three colorants Cobalt,
Rutile and RIO separate, kind of beautiful tiny ponds each one in an
unexpected color you won.
