Item Name:
Moretti Effetre Stringer - Light Transparent Topaz - 2mm - 3mm
SKU:
1558012
Description:
This is a transparent Effetre Moretti soft glass stringer pulled to a slender working size for detailed flame-work. Stringer is made by heating compatible color rod or gather and pulling it down into a consistent thin cane, giving you a small diameter piece of glass that heats quickly and delivers controlled lines of color. Light Topaz is commonly chosen when you want a warm, light amber-gold tone that stays transparent, making it useful for subtle shading, overlays, and fine linework without visually blocking the base color.
How it is used:
- Preheat the tip in the outer flame to avoid shocking the thin glass.
- Use it like a pencil to draw lines, scrollwork, and borders on beads, pendants, and small soft-glass components.
- Apply as fine trailing for surface decoration, then lightly melt in to keep the line crisp or fully melt in for a smoother finish.
- Use short, controlled touches to place small accents and details such as dots, eyelashes, leaf veins, or thin wraps around bead ends.
