RW0761 iris brown light
RW0191 iris amber
Gaffer G175 Cinnamon
Gaffer G110 gold pink extra

Gaffer gold pink extra also got multiple curved cracks when used over a core of Reichenbach RW0201 crystal clear. Which is annoying!
Try a clear base of R-100 which is leaded, so it will be a lot more compatible with these frits that have lead in them. R-201 is lead-free, so that was probably the reason for the cracking.
