Glaze Color	Ground is completely opaque except where glaze pools or when applied very thickly to tiles. Crystals are tinted toward the golden and are sometimes quite yellow. Copper gives olive green and nickel is simply not a match, but cobalt, iron, manganese and most stains will color this glaze very well. Crystals are large and profuse. Matures at cone 9.
