Silver Strike 5 - #70 Small Frit - 4 oz. - Glass Alchemy
Details
Silver strike-5, gives the artist control over the outcome. The more you work this color the more intriguing the final results will be; this color is more intense than silver Stike-3.
Working Tip: Heat to a dull orange and cool multiple times to strike the color. Use a reducing flame to create the popular bleached tones.
Artist Description by Mike Shelbo:
This older sibling to Silver Strike-3 works similarly, yet will yield a range of color from creamy beige and tan to golden yellow and light browns. Soft highlights of blue and light purple come from working the color on the surface.
Also, leaving this color unencased will allow you to reduce (heavy propane flame) to a metallic silver and golden brown metallic.

Nice Bronze on the Inside
by Bert S -
Just a light amount of #70 Silver Strike inside can fume a piece into a real pretty and transparent bronze. A heavier application will provide a 'sandy' bronze look.
