Floating blue is a difficult glaze to make. It is blue with tiny white
flecks if fired right or horrible green if not. It is brown if too thin and
blue streaked if both thin and thick. (Which is ok I like it this way too.)
It is not a cone 6 glaze it is a cone 5 glaze. AND it must be cooled fast
not slow or it is the horrible green. This is how to make it. click here.
