grolleg porcelain formula

updated wed 5 jun 02

 

Brandon Phillips on mon 3 jun 02


I was cleaning out the clay storage room here at school and came across a
100# bag of grolleg kaolin from the late 70's or so. It doesn't seem to
belong to anyone, and the prof. said it was mine to use. My question is
does anyone have a really good formula(s) for a grolleg porcelain body that
works well both in reduction and wood? Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Brandon. A while back Clayart had a recipe for a Cone 6 translucent
porcelain using Grolleg. Did not try it yet but must now be in the Archiv=
es.
Could find it if you are looking for a low firing porcelain. G=E9rard Car=
