Alisa Clausen posted a glaze with 31.7 % iron. Could this be a mistake?

Brad,
The Rosie's Red I have, which is good, is completely different.

Flint 150
Kaolin-EPK 25
Soda F-4 spar 100
Talc 70
Gerstley borate 160
Red iron 75.75

Works both on ^6 and ^7

If you put Albany slip over Rosie's it makes a great grey, green on the edges.

If interested, I have a lovely Rosie's Blue as well.
Good luck, hope I didn't add to frustration. It's a soft blue that works very well oiver/under other glazes, slight satin.

Marianne
