Grass Green Opaque Effetre Rod 216

Diameters available: 5-6mm.

Working notes: A pastel green in the Effetre range which is a great grass colour or stem for flowers.

Our testers have suggested:

"when etched lead to nice natural looking leaves"

"When mashed it has variations in different shades of green throughout the rod...the June 20 version with it is muted tones produces a more natural looking green with a touch of teal."

"The old version was a brighter green colour had quite a lot of variegation and looked much like the gemstone malachite. The new version was a darker green and very little variegation."

"Both are medium dense to work with and feel relatively similar to work. When a 20 mm gather was made a pulled out, the variations in the different shades are quite noticeable and provide a lot of visual interest as they neither are a flat solid colour."

The glass leaf headpins illustrated by Liz, were decorated with 096 RW colour-shifting Raku frit. "The Effetre glass was stable and did not reject with glass frit with a different co-efficient."

The Glass does not " like a hot flame due to bringing out the copper, which can be a little frustrating if you like to work quickly, but patience is a virtue, turn your torch down a touch to eliminate these issues or work further out in the flame."

COE: 104 and is compatible with our other COE 104 glass.

Length: approximately 33-35cm

Effetre code: 591216
