Description:
BB SB Emerald - Bot is a dark transparent green borosilicate color that contains shimmering flecks throughout the glass. In practice, this is the kind of color you choose when you want true depth and richness rather than a flat opaque green. The transparency lets light travel into the body of the work, while the flecks add a lively, reflective sparkle that reads especially well on curves, facets, and any surface that catches and throws highlights.
In lampworking, a transparent green like this is a staple for building dimensional color over clear, creating jewel-like overlays, and adding a deep botanical tone that still feels bright when backlit. The shimmering inclusions make it particularly attractive for pendants, marbles, and sculptural details where the surface will be viewed from multiple angles.
How it is used:
Use BB SB Emerald - Bot as a transparent color component in borosilicate work, especially when you want depth plus visual movement. It is well-suited for:
- Pulling stringer for fine linework, scrolls, and surface drawing that stays crisp but still has depth
- Applying wraps over clear or light colors to build a layered, gem-like green
- Backing or casing over reflective foils or metallic effects where transparency enhances the look
- Accenting marbles, pendants, and blown forms where the shimmering flecks can catch light as the piece turns
For best results, keep your flame clean and your heat even so the transparency stays bright and the flecks remain visually distinct.
