Whiting 2.1

Dolomite 23.4
Tin Oxide 6.4
This is very similar to yellow salt. Except the colour is peachy orange instead of yellow. This pictures do not capture that. It will be darker depending on the darkness of the clay. You can see the iron pull forth in the stoneware here.

I get emails with those silly links or crude jokes. I don’t want this blog to turn into something silly. BUT
This one email has had me in a giggle fit all day. Truly bizarre but worthy of exploitation.
