REDOX (Swedish and English) very interesting ( new ?) type of glaze !

är en speciell sorts glasyr / ett mellanting mellan glasyr och angobe
som man kan lägga på både skröjbränd lera och rå lera
Fantastiskt spännade att testa och jag har hunnit köra 2 olika bränningar sen i måndags när jag fick dom olika färgerna (pulver) i små påsar 6 olika nyanser
Man kan även dra upp dom i olika temperaturer mellan 1050 och 1250 grader C  för olika nyanser
lär ta ett tag att lära sig / den som skulle bli turkos blev mörkgrön med mini inslag av turkos tex...:)
men mina provbränningar har gett mig en hel del gosaker att använda i smyckena mm....

A special kind of glace ( from Germany) that can be used on raw clay as well as bisque fired and in a wide range of  top temp / You can also dilute them heavily as 1/6  powder water!! still get nice colors ...
1922-2282 F / they work intimit with the clay and give a lot of different shiftings in diff. temp and clays..
Mostly they are silk-matte but they can also be shiny like the copper toned was when I  fired it in a single firing  ...some look a lot like leather and most of the testing even if not as I "expected" came out just fine :)
