Bam2015 Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Hello All, I have been rewatching The Great Pottery Throwdown and I realized this time around that they use oxides, never mixed glazes except for clear glaze. Can anyone recommend any books or resources for learning more about oxides? Would glaze books contain this info? Thank you in advance, Betty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hulk Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Hi Bam, Tony Hansen's digitalfire.com site has entries on each oxide, including colorants.Ceramic Oxides (digitalfire.com) and an article on colorants Colorant (digitalfire.com) I like Susan Petersen's book The Craft and Art of Clay, particularly the glaze section, which includes an entry on each important ingredient (including colorants) and clear discussion of unity. I use cobalt carbonate, copper carbonate, rutile, tin oxide, chrome oxide, iron oxide, uhm, oh yeah, zircopax.
