Item Name:
Moretti Effetre Special Rod - Pastel Yellow - 5mm - 6mm
SKU:
1556418
Description:
This is a solid colored soft-glass rod made for lampworking at the torch. It is manufactured as a consistent diameter cane so it heats evenly, gathers smoothly, and can be applied with control for beadmaking and small sculptural components. Pastel yellow is an opaque, softened yellow that is useful when you want warm coverage without the intensity of a saturated primary yellow, making it a strong choice for floral work, character details, and layered color builds where you want a gentle, creamy yellow presence.
How it is used:
- Preheat the rod gradually in the far flame, then bring it up to working temperature before applying it to your piece.
- Wind it onto a mandrel as a base bead color, then shape with marvers and gentle tool pressure for clean bead profiles.
- Pull it into stringer for fine outlines, petal lines, and small decorative accents over darker or more saturated base colors.
- Use small gathers to apply dots and trails for simple flowers, polka dots, and layered spot decoration, then melt in smooth or leave slightly raised for texture.
