What we liked

  • + Cobalt oxide is very strong, so a small amount colors a lot of glaze
  • + Classic source of deep blue in glazes and brushwork
  • + Made in Germany with consistent purity from batch to batch

Trade-offs

  • - Toxic raw oxide needs gloves and a respirator when handling
  • - 10 g is small, though it goes further than most stains
