GLOSSY GLAZE 709-27

This was Sandy's glaze and made several nice colors with the addition of iron and nickel,  and an incredibly reactive vanadium glaze I am calling "Starry Night".


Nickel made a nice grey-brown, especially at Ni-1(.4%) and Ni-2 (.8%):

Starry Night was best around 2-3% vanadium.

 Fe-2, Fe3 and Fe4 all made pretty blue greens.
