Item Name:
Aventurine Rod - Green - 104 COE
SKU:
15502-ROD
Description:
Green Aventurine is a 104 COE specialty color rod made with aventurine, a glittering copper based additive that creates a sparkling, metallic look in the glass. It is manufactured as solid rod for soft glass lampworking and is typically used when you want a rich green color with visible shimmer and depth that reads especially well in sculptural details, bold surface decoration, and accent work.
How it is used:
- Work it in a neutral to slightly oxidizing flame to help keep the sparkle clean and the surface bright.
- Use it for wraps, stripes, dots, and raised trails where the reflective aventurine particles can catch the light.
- Pair it with clear 104 COE for encasement or light casing to add depth and a “floating sparkle” effect.
- Use it as an accent color alongside opaque greens or transparents when you want shimmer without making the whole piece metallic.
- Warm the rod gradually and avoid shocking it, since aventurine style colors can be more sensitive to thermal stress than standard transparents.
