Ned - guess I've learned something! I have no argument with you. I had
never experienced a use of cobalt above even 0.75%.<
Never actually seen the above glaze in person........ does it have a
tendency to have little semi-gloss or matt-ish microcrystaline stuff on t=
he
surface anywhere?
It would be interseting to see a leach test for cobalt off that five
percent plus containing glaze. Anyone ever done it by any chance?
Best,
