Item Name:
Moretti Effetre Stringer - Transparent Light Teal - 2mm - 3mm
SKU:
1558026
Description:
This Moretti Effetre glass stringer is a pre-pulled, small diameter rod of transparent teal light glass intended for detailed flame work. It is constructed as a thin stringer, typically used exactly as supplied so you can apply fine lines, small dots, and controlled surface decoration without needing to pull down full size rod yourself. In lampworking, transparent stringers like this are used when you want clean color placement, crisp linework, and consistent detail work on beads, small sculpture, and decorative components. The teal light transparent color is especially useful for layering over lighter bases, building subtle gradients, and adding transparent depth without overpowering the underlying design.
How it is used:
- Preheat the stringer gradually at the edge of the flame to reduce thermal shock before bringing it into working heat.
- Use the tip to apply fine lines, scrollwork, or outlines onto a warm base bead or component.
- Apply small dots and melt them in for controlled spot color, then shape with heat for raised or flattened detail.
- Layer the transparent color over other colors and lightly melt in to create depth and tonal variation.
