Description:
Moretti Green Tea Cool Rod is a soft glass color rod used for lampworking and beadmaking. It is manufactured as a straight, pull-formed glass rod intended to be introduced directly into a torch flame for melting, shaping, and applying color to a base bead or small sculptural form. “Green Tea” is a green color in the Effetre Moretti Cool Colors palette and is commonly used when you want a clean, contemporary green that can be worked as a primary body color or layered over other colors for depth.
How it is used:
- Warm the tip of the rod gradually in the back of the flame to reduce thermal shock, then bring it to a working glow.
- Use the molten gather to wind glass onto a mandrel for beads, or apply it as a stripe, dot, or wrap over a base color.
- Pull stringer from the rod for fine linework, detailing, and surface decoration.
- Layer with clear or other transparent colors to adjust saturation and create depth in encasement-style designs.
