Check the comment response below. It is a glaze that varies from bright electric blue to magenta to deep violet. It's very temperamental and sensitive to all firing methods and placement in the kiln (cool corners or direct hit by burner). If you like to be surprised, give this one a go!

One of my favorite shapes. Wonderful colors making cool designs in the glaze.

I am loving the colors, do you have any idea of the name of the glaze(s) you used?

So, two months later, here is a glaze formula for you! It doesn't have a common name I know of. Just know that if you ever make this glaze, it is very tempramental and responds well to different conditions. And if I'm not mistaken, some of these materials are not easily found anymore, so some substitution may be in order. Here are the percentages:
6200 Feldspar - 41.27
EPK - 1.76
Flint - 26.67
Whiting - 8.82
Gerstley Borate - 8.63
Dolomite - 8.63
Zinc Oxide - 1.76
Tin Oxide - 2.55
Copper Carbonate - 1.96
Cobalt Carbonate - .49

great color, very vibrant... would be absolutely outstanding next to something white, flowers maybe, or cloth (just a random thought that occured to me just now)... anyway, a great piece... nice work...
