Description:
Moretti Rose Medium Effetre Glass Rod is a soft glass color rod made for lampworking and beadmaking. It is manufactured as a solid, consistently colored rod intended to be heated in a torch flame and applied as a working color for forming beads, small sculptural components, and decorative surface work. Rose is commonly used when you want a warm pink tone for floral palettes, skin tones in simple figures, and layered designs where a softer, less aggressive color helps keep the overall look clean and balanced.
How it is used:
- Warm the rod gradually in the outer flame to reduce thermal shock, then bring it up to a smooth working temperature.
- Wind molten glass onto a prepared mandrel to build a bead base, then shape with gravity and basic tools.
- Apply as an accent color for dots, stripes, wraps, and simple overlays, then melt in for smooth transitions.
- Pull stringer from a heated gather for fine linework, small scrolls, and delicate detailing.
