Canary - Northstar
Details
NS063 Canary is a bright intense opaque lemon yellow. It is eye catching and is well suited for stringer application, and blown work. It is not terribly sensitive to flame chemistry but stay out of overly reducing flames. Canary, however, is heat sensitive so it must be worked carefully to prevent boiling. Encasing with clear is another method to shielding the color, but not necessary. Canary can be easily worked on the surface and will not boil or scar if worked carefully in a soft flame. For a nice color effect layer NS009 Yellow over NS063 Canary.

A Perfect Yellow
by Alexander
I bought some of each cadmium color in northstar's standard range to determine which ones I liked best. I much preferred Goldenrod to Canary in the rod, as the canary looked very glaring. However, after working with the goldenrod, I realized I needed a brighter yellow. I'm not sure if it is an illusion or an actual effect, but after working Canary looses that harsh glare and becomes a gorgeous yellow. It looks especially lovely against Cobalt. Like any cadmium color, it is very prone to boiling.

Only glass that works for me and is up to my standards.
Nice Yellow
by Joshua
I love this color for flower stamens....It is not as sensitive as I thought it would be ...just make sure it warms up before you hit it with the heat and try to heat it indirectly when going real hot...Works for me anyway..
Must have

This color next to a bright blue really is next level beautiful.
EXTREMELY vibrant yellow
by Kevin
This is an EXTREMELY vibrant yellow. I use it for rainbows, but be careful to match it with other bright rainbow colors, as if you match it with dark greens and blues, it will overwhelm them. It is a very similar color to the Origin Boro Bars Sunshine yellow, but easier to work.

Not easy to work with but a good opaque yellow
by Mustard
Not an easy color, but in my opinion this yellow is much easier working than any of the other yellow crayon colors on the market.
