Item Name:
Aventurine Frit - Goldstone - Dust
SKU:
15501-DUST
Description:
Goldstone Dust is a very fine specialty glass powder used to add a warm, coppery sparkle and metallic-looking shimmer to lampworked and fused pieces. It is supplied as loose dust so it can be applied in thin, controlled layers for shading, soft transitions, and detailed surface decoration. Because dust melts in quickly, it is a strong choice when you want a smoother finish and more refined sparkle than you typically get from larger frit, especially for highlights, gradients, and delicate surface effects that you plan to melt smooth or encase.
How it is used:
- Lightly warm the glass and roll it through a thin layer of dust in a tray, then reheat to fuse the dust into the surface.
- Use a small scoop or sifter to sprinkle dust onto hot glass for controlled placement and gradual shading.
- Apply in layers over a base color to build depth, then melt smooth or encase to lock in the effect.
- For fusing, sift dust onto sheet glass or into molds for gradients, soft backgrounds, and fine-detail fills before firing.
