Boro Batch Frit - Large - Blue Honey

Item Name:

Boro Batch Blue Honey Frit (Large)

SKU:

BB-BBF-32-L

Description:

Boro Batch Blue Honey Frit is a borosilicate color frit made from Boro Batch glass that is formulated to strike. Blue Honey presents as a rich, deep blue before striking, and when struck it retains its translucence while developing waves of purple and a greenish blue appearance. This is a very workable color that rewards careful flame control and should be used in a neutral to slightly oxidizing flame to avoid heavy reduction.

How it is used:

Use this frit to add striking blue and purple tones to borosilicate work by rolling a hot gather in frit, applying it to a tacky surface, or layering it under clear for depth and complexity. Work it in a neutral to slightly oxidizing flame, avoiding heavily reducing environments that can muddy the color. Strike by cycling heat and allowing brief cool downs until the purple and greenish blue tones develop. It is useful for surface decoration, encasement work, and building complex blue overlays without switching to full rod.
