Steven's red orange recipe is different. I modified the recipe some to tone down the red orange that Steven uses. I will ask him if I can post pics and the recipe on the Insight site.

What glaze are you using for the orange red? I've got cornell iron saturate and apricot recipes. Others have talked about orange-red but I haven't found anything else from SH.

Someone thought SH was using Orange Red -- from Michael Bailey?

I truly believe that the undercoat of strontium crystal magic and the overcoat of Jen's juicy fruit help with the saturation of the colors.

I very much like the sheeting movement inside the bowl. It is quite reminiscent of aurora borealis. Vivid color development too. I've never gotten orange, yellow or green anywhere near that saturated. I advise viewers to look at this image full sized.
