Purple Slip Recipes

Hi does anyone have any links to good purple slip recipes? (rather than glaze)

The tones I'm after...plums, crimsons, mauve, a whole range really. I love the colours in Kirstie van Noort's collection: https://instagram.com/p/0XbpqRIdMN/?taken-by=kirstievannoort

 

I realise that stains are more reliable than oxides but I like the way oxides have an unpredictable quality and richness about them.

I have crocus martis but found when used on it's own it's quite dark/brown tinged, does anyone know what I could add to make it more purple and in what percentages? I thought about adding cobalt carbonate or manganese carbonate and/or tin oxide but it's just guess work so any hints/help much appreciated .

 

Also, a recipe I found says to add 4% manganese carbonate to my slip base, do you think this will work? Thanks.
