Glaze Book

se ricordo bene, riduzione! 

My guess is the original creator of the glaze heavily modified it from something else, reducing it to 70g from 100g. As long as everything is kept proportionate it should be fine, I would think. So use 70% of the water you would for a 100g glaze. Easier to add water if it’s too thick than to remove water if it’s too runny.

Yes it is. The glaze has not been tested in a wood firing.

Can’t say I have. But my one true love is iron- I’m much more into warm reds, browns, and golds than blue. From the photos (the formula’s behind a paywall) it looks like it tends to craze, which means it’s more suitable for decorative or scultpural work than food surfaces. Other than that, I’ve got nothing for you. Sorry.

I hope this was helpful!

I'm aware the queue is empty. Hopefully I'll find some time in the week or so after Easter to refill it. In the meantime, please enjoy this holiday weekend!

If they were from my old studio (the first 150 recipes or so) then they are typically on brown stoneware, sometimes white stoneware or porcelain.
