More Yellow Salt over RIO

A large vase (about 14" tall) with Bone Ash and Wood Ash on the top.

A pitcher with Black (Tenmoku) on the bottom.

A couple altered bowls.

This one is Bone Ash over black underglaze (from Coyote Clay). Yellow salt on the bottom. Coleman Tea Dust inside.

This one is Celadon over black underglaze. Yellow salt on the bottom. Coleman Tea Dust inside.

Some Vases

The two on the left are Yellow Salt over red iron oxide. The one on the right is Bone Ash over red iron oxide. Clare did the "buttons" and the lines on the rightmost one.

Flambe over Yellow Salt

These are on porcelain. Currie Flambe has 0.5% Silicon Carbide to cause the copper to (mostly) turn red.

More fun with SiC

This was kind of interesting. Although the art center fires Cone 10 Reduction, the reduction doesn't generally happen at the right time for copper red glazes. Since I have a bunch of very fine Silicon Carbide, I decided to try a copper red. Because it's one of the few without Barium, Zinc, or Gerstley Borate, I picked Currie Flambe for my first attempt.

Currie Flambe

39.2		Minspar 200 (NC-4)
12		Whiting
27.2		Silica
0.4		Kaolin
21.2		Frit 3134
1		Tin
1		Copper Carb
2		Bentonite (I skipped, but shouldn't have)

		To this I added:
0.5		Silicon Carbide 1600 mesh

I first tried this on the inside of a pair of espresso cups in white stoneware and the glaze turned out purple with green spots. It was interesting so I tried it on a large porcelain bowl. Same result exactly. The outside of the bowl is Yellow Salt. Kind of cool how the Flambe ran down into the Yellow Salt. There is some VC AA Green sponged over the Yellow Salt in case you look closely and are wondering where the green came from...

Yellow Salt glaze

I've recently been using a glaze called yellow salt. Here's some images.

Porcelain mugs. The dots are red iron oxide under the glaze. The runs are from Hanna's Fake Ash.

A stoneware pitcher. The inside and rim are Coleman Tea Dust. The lighter band is Nuka. The rest is yellow salt. The bottom textured part has red iron oxide under.

A mug in Laguna Los Altos Blend. The outside is a glaze called rust.

A bowl in Laguna Half and Half. The glaze was poured. The outside is Ohata, the runs are from Hanna's Fake Ash.

A bowl in Laguna Half and Half. The glaze was sprayed. The darker part is Hanna's Fake Ash sprayed over.
