Notes: This porcelain is very glassy in the wood kiln and has a strong tendency to carbon trap and grow crystals in the glassy surface. The small addition of redart gives the body a pink tone in its raw form, but aids in flashing quality in the wood kiln. Flashing colors range from heavy orange-pink blushes to to deeper orange-brownish tones. When this body carbon traps it appears to be a very glossy blue-gray with colorful surface crystals. Glassier sections of this body have a lot of visual depth. Higher areas in the wood kiln tend to yield the orange-brownish tones with less impressive surface.
