Item Name:
Moretti Effetre Rod - Transparent Sage Green - 5mm - 6mm
SKU:
1556019
Description:
This is a transparent sage green Effetre glass rod made for soft glass lampworking. It is manufactured as a solid, round rod that is designed to be melted directly in a torch flame for beadmaking, small blown forms, and sculptural components. Sage green is often chosen when you want a more muted, natural green that still stays transparent, making it a strong option for botanical palettes, subtle overlays, and layered color work where you want depth without a loud or highly saturated green.
How it is used:
- Preheat the rod gradually in the outer flame, then bring it into a neutral working flame to begin melting.
- Wind molten glass onto a mandrel to form beads, then shape with marvers and hand tools to refine the form.
- Pull stringer for fine linework, stems, leaf veins, and controlled striping where a softer green reads more natural.
- Use as a transparent overlay on compatible soft-glass colors to tint and soften underlying designs while keeping them visible.
- Encase with clear to build depth and a clean, dimensional sage tone in beads and small torchblown components.
