Item Name:

Description:
Moretti Rose Quartz Transparent is a soft glass color rod made by Effetre in a transparent pink tone that reads like a warm rose. It is manufactured as solid cane and pulled to a consistent rod diameter so it can be worked directly in a torch flame for lampworking. This color is used when you want a transparent pink that allows light to pass through the glass, making it well-suited for layered color builds, casing over other colors, and adding depth without fully obscuring underlying pattern or form.
How it is used:
- Preheat the rod slowly in the back of the flame, then bring it to a smooth working temperature to avoid shock and to keep application controlled.
- Use it as a bead base color on a mandrel when you want a clean transparent pink that stays luminous after annealing.
- Apply it as an overlay over compatible soft-glass colors to create depth, soften high-contrast patterns, or shift the hue of the base color.
- Pull stringers from the rod for fine transparent linework, scrolls, and detail accents that remain light-transmitting.
