Momeema Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 I have a lot of 04 glazes & crystal glazes but I have cone 5 stoneware. I am making ceramic windchimes. What would happen if I tried missmatching glazes? I am doing a test fire but would like some input. I will post my results, wish me luck!

Marcia Selsor Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 You might try mixing a little of your clay in slip form in with the glazes to prevent them from running all over the place. Definitely test. Maybe try a teaspoon or two as a first step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momeema Hi Momeema, I think that the fact that the stoneware matures at a temperature different from the glazes you plan to use will not be a problem, you could bisque it at a higher temperature even cone 4 and then glaze it, and fire it at the cone the glaze requires. good luck Mara Orsi www.maraorsiceramic.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momeema Posted July 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 Thanks! I test fired some crystal glazes last night, they worked out except for a couple. I will now try your sugestion and post results. Thanks, Momeema Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
