This is my new favorite glaze combo. It is the combination of red/pink/purple/mauve glaze and Pearl White glaze, two different glaze recipes I found a few years back. I have used this combo before but only with the white on top of a cup all covered with red glaze. I don't remember it being quite this pretty. This combo is slightly differently applied. First, the bowl inside was glazed with the red and then the top outer rim. Then the bottom was dipped into the Pearl White with about a one inch overlap over the red. Both glazes can be runny when thick and thankfully, it did not run onto the kiln shelf. I must say, I love the variety of colors produced here. You will be seeing more of this combo in future work.
