Chad Jerzak Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Hello- I'm looking for a low fire beaded/crawling type of glaze. This glaze will be raku fired and pretty much a base that can accept any variety of colorants. Anyone care to share something on this order? Thanks for any help!

Marcia Selsor Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Here is one posted on Clayart a while back that was taken from lana Wilson's book. David: I've been using the recipe credited to Lana Wilson. It turns out white. I subbed OM4 for the Kentucky ball clay. 60 nepheline syenite 22 magnesium carbonate 18 Kentucky ball clay photo at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/clayart/1355647449/in/photostream/lightbox/ I recommend her book. It is glazing on the Right Side of the brain. Also you could try googling a bead glaze yourself. Marcia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucille Oka Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 If you want to purchase these specialty glazes, for the 'crawl glaze' go to http://www.amaco.com...-lead-free.html and for 'Lead Free White Pebble Specialty Glaze SP-400' go to http://www.amaco.com...-lead-free.html . They are both low fire glazes. I am not sure if they can be rakued. You can always ask Amaco if they can be rakued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopper. http://ceramicartsdaily.org/ceramic-glaze-recipes/glaze-chemistry-ceramic-glaze-recipes-2/lichens-and-lizards-and-leopards-oh-my-reticulated-glaze-recipes-for-wild-ceramic-surfaces/ I do know there are commercial products out there that do a similar thing... ?? Not sure how they would work at Raku temps. Nelly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
