Description:
Moretti Gold Aventurine stringer is a 104 COE Effetre soft glass that has been pulled down into thin stringers for detailed lampworking. The gold aventurine effect comes from metallic crystals suspended in the glass, giving it a distinctive sparkle that reads especially well as surface decoration and fine linework. This stringer format is used when you want controlled, small applications of a sparkly accent color without adding bulk, making it ideal for scrollwork, dots, trim lines, and delicate overlays on beads and small soft glass components.
How it is used:
- Warm the tip slowly and evenly to reduce shocking and to keep the stringer from snapping.
- Use in a neutral to slightly oxidizing flame to keep the surface clean and preserve the crisp sparkle.
- Apply as fine lines, dots, and edging on beads, pendants, and small sculptural details where you want a metallic glitter highlight.
- Lightly marver or flame polish after application to seat the stringer cleanly without smearing the design.
- For maximum sparkle and depth, use as a surface accent and consider a light clear cap if your design calls for a smoother finish.
