Crystalline Glazes
Crystalline Glazes: Understanding the Process and Materials is a complete course in this most esoteric of ceramic arts which will be of use to beginners and seasoned potters alike. All aspects of developing, mixing, coloring, applying and firing to maximize the beauty of these glazes are covered in detail in an easy to read, one-on-one style. Illustrations of various aspects of glazing, color combinations using both readily-available and rare-earth colorants are included, as are recipes for tried-and-true glazes that will help you on your path to success.
The Art of Crystalline Glazing
"This comprehensive treatment of crystalline glazing offers complete directions on how these exciting glazes are compounded, applied, and fired, with how-to exercises for every step of glaze production. A firing schedule and complete explanation is provided for each of the 55 glaze recipes included"--Back cover.
Glazes for Special Effects
"Contains chapters on crystals and various types of crystalline glazes, the technique of copper reduction glazes, the accumulation and use of ash for wood ash and plant ash glazes and embellishments such as luster and underglaze decoration. The book also presents a raku demonstration and an explanation of the differences in philosophy and practice between Japanese and American approaches to making raky ware. Other subjects include porcelain body compositions on which to use the glazes, coloring oxides for porcelain slip, localized reduction firing, Arabian luster glazing, soluble salts decorating, and how to make your own frits. There are also tables of complex ash glazes and of formulas for commercial frits."--Dust jacket.

Studies in Glazes, Vol. 2
Excerpt from Studies in Glazes, Vol. 2: Crystalline Glazes One fact in connection with the time-temperature treatment was developed in these studies, which permitted the shortening of the total time required for each burn, viz., that the rate of raising heat did not seem to affect the character of crystallization, unless the heat raised so rap idly as not to permit complete fusion of the entire glaze mass. Inasmuch as each glaze used in the various blends had been rendered homogeneous by fritting, and the thick saggers and heavy brick work of the kiln necessarily made the raising of heat a comparatively slow process, it may be said that under these conditions the heat may be raised as rapidl...
