Well, I have tried out several iron red glazes but still can't seem to get
what I really want.
Is there such a thing as a ^6 electric glossy iron red?

Dear Maianne
I am reluctent to say no because every thing is possibul . The best I
have seen are satin but not glossy and these are made with lead at a lowere
temperature.
The trouble is that the iron that causes the red color crystalizes out of
the glaze and crystles give a mat or at best silken sheen to the pot . The
latter I prefer over a hard gloss any day.
