Vert de Gris

This beautiful colour comes from the oxidising of copper and was first picked up in Greece by the French.
It was called Vert de Gris and over time became verdigris.

It's the name of the new glaze Michael is experimenting with on a tin glaze.  The results are fascinating.
Green turtles float in large water bowls with the blurey effect of looking through water.
Will post image soon.
