Description:
Moretti Effetre Gray Pearl Pastel is a soft glass color rod pulled as a solid cane for torchworking. The color is a smooth, opaque pastel gray with a pearl like look that is useful when you want a neutral base that tones down brighter colors and gives clean contrast for dots, stringer lines, and layered designs. Rod form provides steady, predictable feeding into the flame, making it a practical choice for building bead bodies, applying even color coverage, and adding controlled decorative elements in small sculptural lampwork.
How it is used:
- Pre-warm the rod in the back of the flame, then bring it up to a working glow to reduce thermal shock.
- Apply molten glass to a prepared mandrel to build bead shape, or apply to hot glass as an opaque gray base layer.
- Use the rod directly for dots, bands, and scrollwork, or pull stringer for fine line detail and crisp pattern edges.
- Pair with other compatible soft glass colors to create soft gradients, high contrast accents, or muted palettes in beads and small torchworked forms.
