Lili Krakowski on wed 6 dec 06
Someone asked the other day about a pinkish c.10 glaze. I have not seen a
response.
However in my notebooks I found a Spodumene glaze which gives orangey tones
on porcelain.
Dolomite 22
Whiting 2
Custer Spar 22
Spodumene 20
Kaolin 26
Bentonite 10
Tin 6
And Cooper has a barium glaze that calls for 1.5% nickel... So I would try
nickel in a high Strontium glaze.

There is a cone 6 glaze carried by Opulence that turns out very pink. It's
called Cherry Blossom
karen gringhuis on thu 7 dec 06
Take just about any base and color it with a small
percentage of Cerdec inclusion pigment Intense Red. It
will hold in redtn but be a bit grayer than in ox. I
am guessing that some Mason stains would also work.

There is also a cone 6 from Laguna ...WC101 - I can't remember the name
since I just call it pink. It is on my website ...the item called Heart
Bowl. Or on one of my ebay auctions, the bread baker if you want to see
it. It is fired on BMix with grog.

Yup, I use Mason stain #6000 in a high calcium, non-zinc glaze. It's
a soft, pretty pink. Also, if you have access to erbium oxide, it
gives a beautiful pink that isn't affected by zinc.

Hi All
There is also a type of matt pink glaze that uses no colouring oxide.
The recipe that Lili Krakowski listed may be one of these.
A wide range of glazes gives this matt pink effect, but they all have
zero or low quartz in the recipe. This is a quote from my book
"Stoneware Glazes - A Systematic Approach":
"Matt Pink Glazes along the Kaolin Baseline* - When fired in strong
reduction, most of the sets under study developed matt pink glazes
along the kaolin baseline (i.e. between A and C) or near it. As the
glazes are fired higher, the effect disappears as the glazes become
shiny; The pink does not occur if the glaze application is too thin."
*The "kaolin baseline" is the line of glazes along the left-hand edge
one of my grids that all contain no quartz.
So the essential features are:
Zero or low quartz in the recipe
Reduction firing
Thick application
Matt glazes not over-fired to become shiny
I think a white clay body is necessary. I've not done any systematic
work on this particular aspect, but there is some indication that the
colour moves towards grey or bruise-colours on an iron-y body.
If you have this type of colour and want to get rid of it, the
easiest way is to add a little quartz to the glaze, or perhaps just
apply it thinner.
If you can get hold of my "Stoneware Glazes..." book, you will find
quite a few mentions in the Base Glazes section if you look in the
"Comments on results" for the individual sets (there are 8 sets).
You will also find the recipes there in the "Data Sheets".
The discovery of the essential requirements for these pink glazes was
one of the early successes for my Grid Method.
If you can't get hold of a copy of my book there, you can purchase
one by credit card from my website:

In case you missed it in my post yesterday, I am still calling for
expressions of interest in my USA tour in March/April. There are
still one or two slot left. All that is needed at this stage is
someone with e-mail who is willing to act as organiser.
Cheers

Nancy's Pink Icing from CM some years ago. I add a couple percent EPK.
If the pink isn't good enough you can up the rutile a bit. Although
lately rutile hasn't been working as well, at least in my kiln. I did
have to add a teeny tiny bit of chrome oxide.
Gerstley Borate ... 6.3%
Lithium Carbonate ... 2.0%
Magnesium Carbonate... 6.1%
Strontium Carbonate ..12.6%
Whiting ..12.1%
Nepheline Syenite ..21.0%
Flint ..40.0%
Add: Tin Oxide ....3.0%
Rutile ....3.6%

Dear Elayne,
Good luck with your project.
My mother is a breast cancer survivor of more than 55 years.
Here is a glaze that Ron Roy gave to Sue Hintz many years ago on =3D
Clayart:
It works well with crimson and pink stains. I have used it with Crimson =3D
stain with good results.
You'll have to test for % of pink stain. Great glaze, smooth and not =3D
fussy.

You'll want a real baby pink for this, not a maroon like you're likely
to get with a chrome/tin pink glaze. You're going to need to go to a
stain for that. Almost all of the pink stains will work in any glaze
that does not have zinc in it, so choose your favorite uncolored base
glaze of whatever surface you like, and put in 5%-8% stain. Test
first, of course. As I recall, Mason makes one pink stain that is not
Cr/Sn, but rather a cobalt/alumina stain. That will make hot pink in
any glaze whether it has zinc in it or not, in oxidation or reduction.

Add pink stain to reliable clear glaze - test.

Of course, we're assuming you mean to fire to cone6, oxidation, and use a
white clay. Yes???

Try this one:
G200 HP Feldspar 21
Minspar Soda Feldspar 13
F3134 17
Whiting 11
EPK 8
Ball Clay (OM 4) 8.5
Silica 21.5
Bentonite 2
Superpax 8 or 9
plus mason 6002 (rose) or 6005 (crimson). You need only about 5% but
you'll have to test. Also, this glaze cracks when too thick on the bisque
and crawls, so watch the thickness. Do not double dip. It's a great glaze
for all colours, especially if you paint on top of the glaze like I do.
It's a slight variation from Ron Roy and John H.'s majolica from their
book.

Yes. That is the only way to get an actual pink. As a transparent glaze
the pink isn't really pink, more like flesh colour. Also, the Superpax
seems to improve the surface and, with it, you need less stain.

I wouldn't recommend that glaze for functional ware. Might be OK on
the outside, but I think it would stain in daily use. It's very matte
and not very stable.
When I made m y original recommendation to just use pink stain in a
zinc-free base I forgot to mention too that that color would be helped
out by a base with a lot of calcium. Tony Hanson's 5x20 base or the
Raspberry Base from Mastering Cone 6 Glazes would probably be good
choices.
