[Dry Effect Oxide Patina]

Thanks Peter!

I glaze fire to 1240 C so if I could test this patina in the same firing, it would be easiest. But is it possible that changing frits changes the end result of the patina?

 

[Dry Effect Oxide Patina]

Hi,

I found a study which describes "dry effect oxide patina" as one type of category of patinas. There is a recipe for "Dirt" patina:

6 tin oxide, 2 red iron oxide, 1 copper carbonate, 1 Ferro 3134 frit

Does anyone have experience on such patina? I would love to test this as "dry effect dirt patina" sounds like something that I am looking for my pieces.

I haven't made my own glazes so I don't anything about frits. I read that melting temperature for 3134 is 790-870 C so does it mean this patina could not be be used for high fire temperatures?
