The following set of glazes are from a Ceramics Monthly article by

"To quote the article"
These simple reduction glazes are based on no more than four major ingredients. Most of these recipes works well in single firing; many lend themselves to salt or vapor glazing applications as well.
These glazes may also be used as a basis for tests to develop recipes for firing at
Cones 5 - 7 reduction.
|
Cont. from CM Article Summer 1985
Line blend tests using 5% - 15% of an equal - parts mixture of barium carbonate, dolomite, Gerstley borate and zinc oxide should result in interesting lower - temperature glazes.
