Two Glaze Firings, Cone 6 Then Cone 06

Recommended Posts

I'd like opinions as to what you think occurred. I have fired cone 6 clay with cone 6 glazes many times. Then added some underglaze with a clear and refired the pieces at cone 06. The cone 6 glazes have never changed color until my last firing. I had many pieces with a black cone 06 on them. Could the black have caused the color changes in my cone 6 glazes? A celadon green turned to a forest matt green, a pumpkin orange color went very pale and a waterfall blue went clear in many places. The pink purple turned pale green. The raspberry and mauve did not change color. Any ideas?

Any chance there was a difference in the firing hotter, colder, faster, slower, different cooling rate, different kiln?

 

No. Everything was the same. Slow firing, same kiln, etc. The clear glaze had not changed and the black was one that I've used in the past, but never with a cone 6 glaze batch.
