Asian 12mm Jade White Rod
AR-JADEWHITE12
Asian 12mm Jade White Rod is a color borosilicate glass rod pulled to a consistent 12mm diameter. It presents as a soft, milky white with a subtle jade-like translucence that reads semi-opaque in finished work. The 12mm size is a practical mid-range diameter that gives you enough mass for medium to larger work without the slow heat-up and heavy thermal load of “fat” rod, making it a solid choice when you want efficient gathers and clean, even color.
This rod is used as a primary color for building up medium to large beads, sculptural forms, and layered or cased color effects in borosilicate lampworking. The semi-opaque jade white character is especially useful when you want a softer, more dimensional white than a flat opaque, and it can be worked into overlays and built-up sections where a smooth, milky body color helps unify the design. As with any heavier color rod, steady heat control and proper annealing help maintain the intended appearance in the finished piece.
