Description:

This is a solid Effetre Moretti soft-glass color rod in the Plum Silver Dark Machine Pastel color. It is produced as straight rod stock designed to be melted in a lampworking flame for beadmaking, small soft-glass sculpture, and decorative surface work. This color is typically chosen when you want a deeper plum tone with a muted, sophisticated look that pairs well with ivories, whites, greys, and other purples for floral palettes, organic designs, and high-contrast accents.

How it is used:

• Warm the rod slowly in the outer flame to reduce thermal shock, then bring it up to a working heat.
• Wind it onto a mandrel for bead bases or use it to build up small gathers for soft-glass components.
• Apply it as wraps, dots, or simple overlays to add depth and a dark plum accent to your design.
• Combine it with other compatible soft-glass colors in the same COE family for consistent working behavior and durability.

Dimensions:

• Rod diameter: 5mm – 7mm
