Rutile is a high iron and titanium mineral mined in Sudbury, Ontario. When kilns cool this glaze "parties and dances", creating amazing rivulets and crystals of blue and navy. Both of these glazes are made from materials mined by Plainsman Clays (in Montana, Alberta, Saskatchewan). Both produce a wide range of effects with different thickness, bodies and firing schedules. This effect is achieved by firing to cone 6 (2200F) and slow cooling down to 1400F.
