Pulled an interesting test result from a non porcelain body with a custom ^6 crystalline glaze. The piece is fairly big standing at around 18 in and the avg crystal is roughly 2.5 to 3in in diameter. Ive never had any of my tests do this, having a dark leaf green center with a light to dark cobalt ring. Thoughts or experiences with these colors?

Once I get home I will attempt to do a few macro shots of the secondaries. I only have a phone camera so I'll have to aquire a convex lense from something and try my luck.

No nickel in this one. I added a mixture of TiO2, Li2O, CoCO3, and MnO. Added a few other fluxes to reduce the melting point of the glaze to ^6

I did not bisque this piece either, this was a "single fire".
