Alberta Slip:Ravenscrag Cone 10R Celadon
Recipe
Notes
This is a celadon that you can tune to your needs. It works well on dark and light stonewares and porcelains. Adjust the proportions of Alberta Slip to Ravenscrag Slip to fine-tune the color (more Ravenscrag for lighter color). Adjust the amount of frit to tune the amount of gloss and melt fluidity. Fine tune the thermal expansion by changing the frit (e.g. frit 3134 for higher expansion, 3249 for lower, 3124 for nuetral). Since this glaze is 90% clay, roast half of the Alberta Slip complement to reduce the drying shrinkage (for application to bisque ware). If applied to leather-hard ware it should be OK as to use raw Alberta and Ravencrag Slips.
