TAG Blue Slyme Rod - Firsts
A flame-responsive blue that shades from clear to milky and keeps its color beautifully under clear encasement.
Overview
TAG Blue Slyme is a Trautman Art Glass borosilicate color that behaves like the classic Slyme family, giving you a range of looks in one color depending on heat and thickness.
It’s especially valued because, unlike standard Slyme, Blue Slyme is known for keeping more of its color under clear encasement, making it a strong choice for layered work and clean, glassy finishes.
Why this color
This is a versatile blue that can read brighter and more transparent when worked thin, then shift toward a softer, milkier look as you build mass or work it hotter, creating natural depth without extra colors.
If you like colors that reward flame control, Blue Slyme is a dependable pick for pieces where you want subtle variation, shading, and a blue tone that doesn’t disappear once you cap it in clear.
Best uses
- Encased beads and pendants where you want the blue to stay visible under clear
- Backing for implosions and layered color stacks that need depth
- Stringer and linework for details that shift with thickness and heat
- Small sculptural elements where you want built-in highlights and lowlights
