Gas Firing in Reduction Robert's Gas Fired kiln attains a temperatures of 2400F.
By controlling the ratio of oxygen and gas, an atmosphere can be
created with an abundance of carbon monoxide.
This "reduction cycle" is responsible for the unique pallet of colors
that develop when carbon monoxide molecules seeks out chemically bound
oxygen in the clay and glazes.
"Chun Red" is a classic reduction glaze, that turns from its
natural color of green to a wide range of reds, when fired in a reduction
atmosphere. |
