Description:

This is a dark turquoise pastel Effetre Moretti glass rod made for soft-glass lampworking. It is manufactured as a straight, round rod with consistent diameter so it heats evenly, winds smoothly, and pulls into consistent stringer for controlled detail work. Dark turquoise pastel is a go-to color when you want a rich blue-green that reads strongly in sculptural work, ocean and botanical palettes, and bold bead designs without needing a transparent base. It is commonly used for beads, small sculptural elements, and decorative components where you want solid, even coverage and dependable color in both thin and thicker applications.

How it is used:

• Preheat the rod in the far flame to reduce thermal shock
• Work it in a neutral flame for the cleanest, most consistent color
• Use it as a base color for beads and small forms
• Pull stringer for outlines, scrollwork, and fine detail lines
• Layer with other soft-glass colors to create shading, borders, and graphic contrast

Dimensions:

• Rod diameter: 5mm – 6mm
