Does anyone have any ideas on what colorant combinations I might try for
producting a coral-colored glaze at cone 6 oxidation on white stoneware?
Thanks,
Wanda

Dear Wanda,
You can add any percents of coral colored universal stain from say 4 to 12%
to a clear base, or any other base that is clear or milky, depending on the
surface you are after. I found with the stains in the red to orange and
lilac families, you need min. 10% to get a deep color. Usually the stains
give a flat, covering color and it is important to apply them evenly.
best regards from Alisa in Denmark

Wanda, try this recipe:
Icing Pink
Neph Sy 23.6
Whiting 12.4
Lithium Carb. 11.2
Gerstley B. 6.5
Barium Carb. 2.0
Magnesium Carb. 2.8
Silica 41.5
Tin Oxide 3.0
Rutile 3.5
This glaze is surprisingly pink considering the colorants, and I think you
could get it to be more of a coral color by varying the proportions of tin
and rutile.
Good luck,
Paul Lewing, Seattle
