Description:
Moretti Green and Red is a soft glass rod color used for lampworking and beadmaking. It is manufactured as solid, round rod in the Effetre color line and is used when you want strong holiday-style contrast, bold striping, and high-visibility accents in beads and small sculptural work. This type of color is commonly worked as a base bead color, applied in wraps and bands, or pulled into stringer for fine decorative lines and dot patterns.
How it is used:
- Warm the rod gradually in a neutral flame, then build a small gather and apply it as wraps or bands on a mandrel-based bead.
- Use it for bold accent lines, stripes, and color blocking on beads, small ornaments, and simple sculptural components.
- Pull the rod down into stringer for fine linework, dot trails, and small surface decoration, then reheat lightly to smooth and round.
- Combine with compatible soft glass colors to create layered patterns, simple encased looks, and high-contrast decorative elements.
