This next generation black is a true black.  When pulled down thin, it maintains a smoky black colour, versus  purple, green or blue like other blacks on the market. Described by many as “bullet proof”, Eclipse does not contain any chrome, so greying and checking are not a major concern.  If you need a more saturated black, check out Raven, 9749.

Working Tip: This colour can handle different flame atmospheres but as always, we recommend working in a neutral flame.

Dragon's Eye, 4838 was developed originally for the beaders who are on constant search for a new colour to diversify their creations. To meet the challenge we created a new green tone. We then added enough colour changing silver to allow organic shifts in the colour without overpowering the green or creating mud, and continue to transmit light without appearing transparent. This is a fantastic surface colour that has a wide range of possibilities.

Working Tip: Flame or kiln strike at 1075°F. Work neutral; reduce at end for metallic effects.

Disco Sparkle, 9958 is an exciting sparkle colour. It is a concentrated silver metallic colour in a clear base. This allows Disco Sparkle, 9958 to be mixed into almost any colour. While many people use the colour full strength, others mix it down as much as 10 parts of clear (or colour) to 1 part of Disco Sparkle, 9958. Even if using the rod full strength it is best to remix the colour prior to using for a smooth, highly reflective surface.

Working Tip:  Disco likes to be worked cool as to avoid yellowing... Treat it like a Crayon colour.

Cobalt-6, 516 was one of our early releases. The darkest of the Glass Alchemy cobalt colours we were faced with, "how dark is too dark"? We had the millifiori maker and the stringer puller in mind when we developed this colour. Now one of our most popular colours, it is used by many any time they need a denser dark colour.

Working Tip: Work in neutral flame to avoid reduction (grey streaks)

Black Violet, 974 was part of Glass Alchemy's initial introduction of colours. At the time the market needed a black that did not boil and we introduced 3 new blacks to choose from. Black Violet is a deep translucent that is extremely workable, great for beads and other sculptural projects. It is popular because it flows together without transition lines, is very shiny and the surface does not easily reduce.

Beryl, 833 was designed as an organic colour to fill a huge hole in the borosilicate palette. A colour that is seen (but not often noticed) in nature and called retro by those that recall the oil lamps and cruets of the 60's, Beryl, 833 makes a great bead colour, is useful as a tint or sculptural colour.

After first introducing information on how to strike silver colours and create metallic finishes, such as using a neutral flame and monitoring time/temperature relationships, we started to hear that some people missed the "surprise" of opening their kiln door. For all of you that fit into this category, we created Amazon Lagoon, 587. This colour was designed to put the "surprise" back into working silver borosilicate colours. Every piece will be beautiful, every piece will be different.

Working Tip: Work in neutral flame and have fun, this one is loaded with silver!
