LONG story about how long it took, but I finally have it!

I am going to try putting it in some terra sigillita, and then I am going to
use it instead of regular iron oxide in some proven glazes to compare the
differences.

It is quite beautiful just in the plastic envelope it was shipped in.

If anyone has any suggestions for its use, half the studio is already lusting
after it! (I got smart and bought some for the studio too). I do Raku and
high fire; some people do soda; and some fire to about cone 06. There is no Cone
6 firing in this studio.
