Notes

Ravenscrag Slip is a revolutionary glaze material for stoneware. At cone 10R it can be used as 100% of the glaze mix and it produces a beautiful silky surface. Many classic cone 10 recipes can be made by simple additions. For example:

Celadon: Add 3-5% iron oxide
Brown crystal: Add 6-8% iron oxide
Tenmoku: Add 9-11% iron oxide
Kaki: Add 11-13% iron oxide
White: Add 4-10% Zircopax

Other colorants: the possibilities are endless.

Ravenscrag has great slurry and application properties, and you can put multiple layers of glaze on the ware.

The bowl samples show here have 100% Ravenscrag on the left, 10% whiting is added on the right.
