Leopard print glaze

A student experimented with
Tenmoku and Satin white.
Her results were 
gold spots on a black brown background.
I mentioned this to Caroline 
who decided to recreate the combination.
I got very excited when I opened the kiln today,
Leopard skin glaze!
I am going to try this too.
Thanks Amy Duke for the inspiration,
Thanks Caroline for your curiosity.

The second experiment was a success but
did not propel me to try. 

Tenmoku, Hyacinth blue and Satin white.  
It did run a bit even though 
I scraped off some before I loaded the kiln.

Perhaps it is my preference for warm colours.
Well done Caroline!
You have two beautiful bowls to collect.
