Glazes renewed in the studio

Kate, Carmela and Wes made new glazes in the studio in the last week.  Kate sieved them on Tues., Oct. 6, so they are available for use. They have not been tested yet so use at your peril. Tests will be forthcoming and pictures of glaze tests will be posted here on the blog when we next fire them.  The glazes available in the studio  presently are Gloria's, Milky Blue, New Blue, Clear (see Carmela's note on the bucket lid), Byrne, Ketchup, Randy's Red, Licorice, BTBT, Nutmeg and Jade. We are looking for a substitute for Goldenrod as it is prohibitively expensive. The Monk's Bronze Green is also not reliable as a standalone glaze, but can be used in some combinations. We will be looking for a substitute for it as it has become a problem glaze in recent batches.
