Not all my mistakes are disastrous. This was supposed to be my metallic green glaze but I mistook cobalt oxide for copper oxide. It did cost me considerably because cobalt oxide is ten times as expensive as copper. I won’t be keeping this as one of my assortment of colors but a guarded few pieces will wear it as long as it lasts.

I call this glaze Metallic Green. It’s a bit contrary and sometimes leads to disappointment. It is one of my most popular glazes and well worth the extra aggravation it presents in the application process. After all, sometimes the challenge brings more joy in the finished piece.
