Item Name:
Moretti Effetre Machine Special Rod - Red Roof Tile - 5mm - 6mm
SKU:

Description:
This is an Effetre Moretti special color rod called Red Roof Tile by Machine. It is manufactured as a solid, round rod and pulled by machine to a consistent working diameter range of 5–6 mm so it can be introduced directly into a lampworking flame. This color is used when you want a warm, earthy red that sits between brick red and terracotta, making it a strong choice for rustic palettes, architectural tones, and natural color stories where a bright primary red would look too clean or too intense.
How it is used:
- Use as a base color for beadmaking and small sculptural work when you want a grounded terracotta red body color.
- Apply as wraps and layered panels to build solid areas for brick, pottery, roof tile, and warm earth-tone designs.
- Pull stringer for fine linework such as outlines, geometric borders, and controlled accent stripes.
- Pair with ivory, tans, browns, and opaque greens for classic Mediterranean and rustic palettes, or use with black for strong definition.
