A Glaze recipe for Emerald Green

I just made a batch of this emerald green glaze and am going to test it this weekend. you can view the results on my fan page.

Emerald - Cone 5/6

Gerstley Borate - 49

EPK (kaolin) - 19

Flint (silica) - 32

Chrome oxide - 2

Cobalt Oxide - 1

Bentonite 2%

This glaze has to be applied much thicker

than you would expect a glaze to go on.

Almost like a thin yogourt. The mug in the illustration was fired to cone 5.

As you get hotter the green becomes more uniform and "greener" much like the area on the edges of the handle
