My clays:
I use K118, a gray white stoneware clay from the
Dutch company Vingerling, and PD10, a
porcelain clay from the Swedish IFÖ.
For special purposes (read turquoise glazes) I use a French porcelain clay from Limoges.
Sometimes I also use different brown stoneware clays for Chün and Shino glazes.
To 95% I use K118 or PD10. K118 is better for big pots than PD10.Glazes:
I always try to make my oxidation glazes (even the crystal glazes!!) so that I can fire them together in the same kiln, and to the same
temperature, 1260-1270oC, with ½ to one hour at the top temperature.
Short about the recipes:
I have received some questions about the
recipes in general.
The recipes add up to 100,00 with or without (usual) the coloring oxides. You can read it
as percent (%) or grams (for a batch of 100 grams). |
