Description:
BB SB Sapphire Mid is a Boro Batch small batch borosilicate color formulated for lampworking. It is a transparent dark blue that reads clean and saturated in the flame, making it a strong choice when you want depth of color without losing light transmission. As a small batch color, it is produced in limited runs and is typically chosen by artists who like working with distinctive, short-availability colors for consistent studio palettes or one-off production.
How it is used:
Use BB SB Sapphire Mid anywhere you want a transparent blue that stays visually bold while still allowing internal detail to show through.
Common lampworking uses include:
- Blown work such as small vessels, ornaments, and components where transparency adds dimension
- Overlay work over clear or lighter transparent colors to deepen tone without turning opaque
- Stringer and line work for crisp transparent accents
- Backing for encasement effects when you want a darker transparent base
For best handling, bring the glass up to temperature gradually and work in a stable, neutral-to-slightly-oxidizing flame to keep the color looking clean and even.
