Question
Hi, I am Jacaranda from Israel. Looking for several "blood-red" glazes for gas fire cone 7.
I hope you can send me two or three options. Thank you,J
Hi Jacaranda, your best option is to fire in oxidation using a clear glaze with a glaze stain added to it.
Glaze stains of many different colours are commercially avalable. mix between 3% and 8% of the stain to your clear glaze.
