Tried a new color mix on a simple cup and got a total surprise
Honestly, I was just messing around with some leftover frit from a project last month, a mix of cobalt and amber purple. I rolled a clear gather in it and made a basic cup shape. When I took it out of the kiln this morning, it had this wild silver sheen in the folds I didn't expect at all. I think the heat from my glory hole, which runs a bit hot, might have pulled something out of the metals in the frit. Has anyone else seen cobalt do that when it's mixed with other stuff?
