neilestrick Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 This is a nice magnesium matte. You'll have to run color tests. GB Matte.pdf GB Matte.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Bridge Pottery Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Looks like anodised aluminium, not sure if that is the right term. Nice glaze, not seen anything like it on my travels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imagodei Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 those could just be colored slip... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denice Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 Those look just like a porcelain slip that I used to make a chess set. I used it in molds that I made for my son of a medieval chess set, It was fired to Cone 5 and no glaze, it was very fragile one of the pieces fell over and the head broke off. Another idea is that the glaze has been sandblasted. Denice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
