This is a very stable ^10 oxidation glaze that should work just as well
in reduction. It's a dark cobalt blue gloss, transparent and glossy.
I've used it for years, it's got a good firing range and never has flaws.
Good luck

Just wanted to tell you I trued your recipe in reduction this week and =
was very pleased with the results!
Had to make a couple of minor adjustments to work with chemicals I had =
on hand.
It did absolutely wonderous things when combined with my gold glaze.
Thanks for sharing!
