Item Name:
Trautman Art Glass - Wisteria Rod
SKU:
TAG033R1-025-TAG-025
Description:
TAG Wisteria Rod is a colored borosilicate glass rod produced as solid rod stock for flameworking. It is made to be worked directly in the torch flame so you can heat, gather, and apply color with consistent results in beads, pendants, small sculpture, and blown components. Colored rod is typically chosen when you want controlled, repeatable color placement for wraps, encasement accents, stringer work, and surface decoration, while keeping your base glass and color application clean and predictable.
How it is used:
- Preheat the rod gradually in the far flame to reduce thermal shock
- Apply directly for wraps, dots, striping, and color overlays
- Pull into stringer for fine detail lines and decorative linework
- Melt into small gathers for sculptural additions and layered color buildup
- Use with clear borosilicate for encasement and depth effects
