Item Name:
Pixie Dust - Antique Gold - #659
SKU:
PXIE DST ANTIQUEGOLD
Description:
Antique Gold pigment powder is a fine decorative pigment made for lampworking and glassblowing surface effects. Pixie Dust pigments are constructed as a dry, finely milled powder that is applied to hot glass to highlight and accentuate focal areas of finished work. When used at the correct heat, the powder adheres to the surface and produces a metallic antique gold finish that can be protected by applying a transparent coating after the application process. This product is sold in 28 gram increments.
How it is used:
- Heat your glass piece until it is red hot so the surface will accept the pigment
- Lightly immerse the hot glass into the pigment powder or coat the surface with Pixie Dust
- Briefly anneal the piece while being careful not to overheat and burn the pigment off
- Add a transparent protective coating after annealing to help seal and preserve the finish
- Use it to highlight raised details, edges, and focal points on beads, pendants, ornaments, and other sculptural work
