Natalie's Cone 10 Reduction Glaze

Kona F-4 Feldspar         47.0
Dolomite                        19.0
Whiting                            4.0               +                Copper Carbonate         3.0
EPK                                 9.0                                 Tin Oxide                      2.0
English Grolleg              10.0
Flint                                11.0

This is a cool pearly pink and lavender glaze. I'm a purple fanatic so I was pleased to see this tile come out of the kiln.  I think it compliments the clay body nicely, too.  Breaks along the edges to reveal the clay color. This glaze was applied pretty thickly to the tile. If not applied thickly, it seems it would appear more gray and dull in color.  The color is a more deep magenta on the textured side of the tile.

    1. I have tested this and it came out a semi shiny pinkish mauve color on porcelain. I tried it on top reitz green and it was a dark matte purple
