See Ron and John's book, "Mastering Cone 6 Glazes" for the recipe.

This is a pretty glaze, glossier than the others. More green than blue and a
little more opaque than I like, but I generally prefer transparent glazes. I may
try this with less Rutile and/or less copper or more cobalt. Then I will call it
Caribbean Sea Blue-Green. Or Turquoise, maybe.

(see notes in separate post on firing specifics)
