Below are some images of the test glazes that I have been playing with. I just wanted a simple clear matt glaze that could go to about 1260 degrees, but the only commercial matt available is only earthenware temp. (1080 - 1100 degrees), so I decided to find some recipes and mix up my own!
I tried seven glazes in total, and I was very happy with five of them - one isn't really a matt glaze at all, and the other just went weird (the image right at the bottom). The next three images are of my three favorites.
This is the one that went quite strange (its almost nice though, as you can just see a pearly blue coming through on the darker clay body)
The clay bodies I used here were Walkers No. 10 Porcelainous Stoneware, and Feeney's Raku Gold.
