Orange?

[auroramoon]

Has anyone had any good results with orange glazes? I am looking for a bright, deep orange color, but  with a shiny finish. Are underglazes or low fire glazes a better bet with orange? It seems to be hard to find this color in high fire glazes..or if I do, they are unstable, uneven, matte, or more of a brownish orange tone. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!

For cone 6, Laguna makes Mandarin orange, which is a gloss bright ORANGE. For a deeper richer orange, Coyote makes Red Orange, also glossy, also a very rich color. ( coyote's yellow orange never comes out that glossy for me )

Degussa Orange stain will work.You would need to add it to a base glaze.

It comes is a few shades of orange. It is an encapsulated stain. It will fire in reduction, Oxidation at high temperatures.

speed ball offers an orange underglaze that is simple to use, you would need to apply a clear glaze on top if you want a gloss finish.

I would probably go with an underglaze because you can see what color you're getting, then apply a glossy clear.
