Oranges and Blues at Cone 10??

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I have always fired to cone 5/6 or low fire cause I love color and I don't see a lot of colors at cone 10. I know some of you here get great color, but I don't have a studio locally that teaches cone 10, so I don't know how you do that. I recently saw a gorgeous orange color a cone 10, maybe soda fired? And I just saw some gorgeous aquas that were drippy and glorious at cone 10 soda fired. Any idea of the glazes used at cone 10 to get oranges and aquas?? Or a reference guide or book? I don't really want to be mixing glazes, I have a whole basement of glazes I mixed on my own and screwed up. :) Commercial glazes would be fine.

Also, I'm looking for a simple way to sagar fire or pit or barrel fire. Are any of the PDFs for sale on the site worthwhile? I want something I can do here at home, with no big equipment or expense. Thanks,

Nancy

Just search the major suppliers-they all have  ^10 color glazes and underglazes.  CAN has free pdf's. Here is one on cone 10  recipes    file:///E:/Clay%20and%20Studio/CAD%20PDFs/15cone10Recipes.pdf

In Google search you can just type in "cone 10 orange glaze" (or aqua-whatwever) and get hits from most makers.

Thank you! I was getting mostly pics of cone 10, and no Soda firing glazes. I’ll try again,

If the orange colours you were looking at were on the outside of the soda fired pots they could have been flashing slips.   For the aqua colour I would do a search for cone 10 blue celadons, quite a few recipes here

Yes, they were on the outside. Sound like flashing slips now that I know what to look for. Thank you!!
