Ingredients
Instructions
Ball Crawl Glaze dipped over Oxblood (AC Glittering Brown). The recipe for AC Glittering Brown is 55% JM frit 169 (can be substituted with Ferro frit 3134), 15% talc, and 30% silica, with the addition of 22% red iron oxide.
Specific gravity: 1.36. Magnesium carbonate has a high shrinkage rate, causing it to crack on bisqueware as it dries. During the firing, because of its high surface tension, it continues to constrict itself, making crawled and beaded surfaces depending on how hot it is fired. It needs to be applied thick enough so that it cracks as it dries, but not so thick that it falls off the bisqueware.
*I substituted magnesium carbonate with light magnesium carbonate in the tests of this recipe.
