Description:
Origin Yellow Bars are colored glass bars intended for torchworking where you want a strong, clean yellow available in a larger mass than stringer. Bar stock is useful because it lets you pull your own stringers on demand, make thicker color applications without stacking multiple thin pieces, and gather small amounts of color for dots, bands, and overlays. A bright yellow like this is commonly used for high-contrast linework, warm highlights, layered color builds, and bold graphic accents in both sculptural and functional lampworked pieces.
How it is used:
- Warm the end of the bar slowly in a neutral flame to reduce the chance of thermal shock.
- Pull stringers from the bar for fine detail, striping, and surface drawing.
- Use the bar to apply small gathers of color for dots, bands, and quick overlays.
- Marver and shape the applied color, then continue building the piece as needed.
- Garage and anneal using a schedule appropriate for the glass type you’re working in.
