Do not forget the "equal"
On porcelain: clear silvery motteled sometimes baige.
The silvery look thanks to unsieved glaze and EZE spraygun.
Out of a test in Lana Wison's book I have learnt that one spoon ruitle 7 grams
and one spoon bone ash 24 gram are
giving
strong matte orange.
I made sevaral tests, adding this combinations to different bases. Never succeeded
but got sometimes nice glazes.

I refomulated it I hope it will work for you
