Green glaze is a type of ceramic finish that is characterized by its glossy green color. It is commonly used in pottery and tile-making to enhance the aesthetic appeal of the surface while also providing a protective layer. The green hue can vary widely, ranging from pale mint to deep forest shades, depending on the specific materials and firing techniques used during the glazing process. Green glaze not only adds visual interest but can also influence the texture and durability of the finished piece.

Glaze flaking off can occur due to several reasons, including improper application or firing temperature. If the glaze was applied too thickly or unevenly, it may not adhere properly to the clay body. Additionally, a mismatch between the thermal expansion coefficients of the glaze and the ceramic can lead to stress during cooling, causing the glaze to crack and flake. Environmental factors, such as moisture or exposure to harsh conditions, can also contribute to glaze degradation.
Copper is the base for the color green in pottery glazes. Compounds such as copper sulfates can be made in a test tube by heating sulfur powder mixed with copper powder(preferable) or filings. Crushing the residual compound in the test tube and adding it to a glaze base should work. Note: I have also used of all things, MiracleGro. It too has a copper compound in it and it has been used as a pottery glaze. I learned of this technique on Youtube. It does work and can be safely used. It also does not produce sulfurous vapors as in the first formulation.
The answer to your question depends on what you want your final product to be. If you intend on having a gold or silver glaze on your ceramics, you have to go through several steps. First, the ceramic piece has to reach the correct initial temperature to ensure the clay has set into the correct density to accept the first coating of glaze. After fired, you will then be able to paint on the next coat, whether it be another coat of glaze or your silver or gold glaze. You can have several layers of glaze on an item, but there could be chemical interactions depending on colors and composition of your item.

Confectioner's Glaze, which is also known as resinous glaze, pure food glaze, natural glaze, and pharmacutical glaze, is an alcohol-based solution. When it is created, dried flakes of shellac (which is made from the secretions of female lac bugs) are re-dissolved in denatured alcohol.
When rubbed against a glaze plate, galena (A) leaves a green-black streak. This characteristic streak color helps in identifying the mineral, distinguishing it from others like graphite, hematite, and pyrite, which have different streak colors.

First you would paint the vase with a glaze. Then you must put it in a kiln for a specified amount of time in order to set the glaze.
Ceramic crawling is a glaze defect that occurs when the glaze pulls away from the surface of the ceramic during firing, leaving patches where the glaze did not adhere. This can happen due to poor glaze application, dust or oil contamination on the surface, or incompatible materials.
