001149 Aventurine Bronze

Cold Characteristics

Working Notes

This style is categorized as a Transparent glass, though very little light is transmitted through the 3mm sheet. Consistent color. Fusible / Bullseye-compatible.

Tiny metallic sparkles, also referred to as spangles, concentrate at the outer surfaces of the sheet glass in the factory-production forming process, including around the rolled edge. The core of the sheet is not metallic.

Design opportunities and characteristics:

• Expand the aventurine color palette by capping with various medium saturation glass styles. See Quick Tip Aventurine Bronze Palette Power
• When fired to a full fuse, cut sheet glass elements used on the surface of a project fire with a solid, not sparkly border.
• Explore displacement effects with the use of various clear or transparent glasses on the top surface to distort the surface.
• Edge construction techniques typically result in an inhomogeneous sparkled result because the core of the sheet is not metallic.
