Item Name:
Moretti Effetre Rod - Pastel Avocado Green - 5mm - 6mm
SKU:
1556210
Description:
This is a solid colored soft glass rod in a pastel avocado green made by Effetre Moretti. It is manufactured as a consistent round cane intended to be heated in a lampworking flame and gathered, wound, pulled, or sculpted into finished work. Pastel greens like this are commonly used when you want an opaque, softer-looking green for botanical details, character work, and clean color blocking in beads and small sculptures.
How it is used:
- Warm the rod slowly in the outer flame to prevent thermal shock, then bring it up to a working heat for winding or sculpting.
- Wind the molten glass onto a prepared mandrel to build bead shape, then use heat control to smooth and refine.
- Use the rod as a base color for layered designs, then add dots, stringer lines, or encased decoration as your design requires.
- Pull heated gathers into stringers for fine linework, detailing, and surface patterning.
