These bowls are made from Highwater Clay’s Phoenix and fired in cone ten salt glaze. The outside is a combination of Salt Slips A, B and E Slips, sprayed in approximate thirds around the pot. The interior is a combination of Albany Substitute Glaze from Chots Levenson, with .75% cobalt carbonate, Ken’s Black (a recipe not yet on the website) and Apple Green Celadon, layered over each other by spraying. The glazes and slips not posted here can be found on Nan’s website www.nanrothwellpottery.com.

Albany Slip
I’ve always used Albany Slip as a liner glaze in salt. As I have neared the end of my “lifetime supply” I have begun to search for alternatives to it. On my website, I provide two substitute recipes for Albany (the one above and another). There is also a new slip clay available called Ohio Slip that seems to be a close match to the original Albany. It’s sold by Pam Adkins of A&K Clay 937-379-1495 or www.akclay.com. My early tests suggest that it looks good in salt but seems to be slightly more refractory than the original stuff.

The reduction soy bottle at left has a combination of Albany Substitute Glaze, plus .75% cobalt carbonate, Apple Green Celadon, and Chots Levenson’s Blue Ash sprayed in layers.
