Default Is there such a thing as Boro Raku?

Hi! I'm new to all of this and am curious about Raku. If such a thing exists where can you get it? Thanks.

I'd say the closest thing effectwise is Double Amber Purple. The colors are not exact but
you can get the whole rainbow pallet efect depending on how you heat strike it.

And it kind of works the opposite way. Raku starts off dark (once you lay it
down and do the initial striking) and gets lighter and more colorful the more
you play with it in the torch. DAP starts off as a creamy
caramelish color and gets darker the longer you play with it in the flame.
(results vary from torch to torch/ humidity in the air/phases of the moon/what
you're wearing...etc).
