Caramel

Here are a few pieces with this "Caramel" enamel:

To obtain this "Caramel" glaze, I started with my " Litchi" glaze. This very light glaze contains a good quantity of Titanium Oxide, so I wanted to be able to observe the range of colors I could develop from this base.

I therefore carried out tests by weighing the same quantity of " Litchi " glaze (already prepared) and adding different oxides in different proportions. This imprecise method has the advantage of enabling me to carry out a large number of tests quickly, without having to do a lot of weighing. Following these tests, the most interesting ones, if any, can be confirmed by going back to the weighing method.

Here's the result of this first test by adding Iron Oxide in different proportions:

Here, I note the "Caramel" brown color that appears in the fourth sample. So I decided to try again, actually weighing each raw material to find the right amount of corresponding Iron Oxide:

It's not easy to find the enamel of the fourth sample. It must be between the 3rd and 4th, so I repeat the sampling of different proportions of Iron Oxide, but in a more targeted way:

I select the fourth sample. But given its slight runniness, I carry out a test by varying the Silica :

I decide to stay with the middle sample and carry out my thickness test at the same time:

I'm testing this formula on larger pieces:
