To Rakuers. Mainly in Israel
This is the one glaze I did not investigate all the way, but I think it can be a very good
raku glaze. Not a crackle glaze.

The name means only the source of this recipe, ^04 oxidation ash - lithium glaze of
Eduard B.. It gives rich red brown on my porcelain claybodies.
You may get it on any raku claybody if you use a slip rich with of English Kaolin CC31
locally used which is very white,on the greenware,
I tried hardly to convert it to the "west side" materials and failed. The only way was to
use soluble materials.
Frit 2120 can be replaced ( through a software) to 3110
6004 is quite similar to frit F 74
I know from Tom Buck that to order it you must order a sack.
I, me, Ababi the glaze addict would not order a sack to test a new glaze.
