Transparent Green SECONDS - Northstar
Details
Transparent Green is a transparent emerald green. It is intense enough for blown work and looks great in sculpture. NS-24 is sensitive to atmosphere and in order to maintain its original color, work in an oxidizing flame. If worked in a reducing flame, NS-24 will develop brick red streaks. Try layering Transparent Green over NS-53 Forest Green or NS-27 Green Exotic for exciting effects. Refer to Northstar Newsletter issue 6 under the heading ‘The Importance of Oxidation’ for additional information.
Odd quality glass is first quality glass that is out of round, thinner/thicker than normal, has a taper, varies in diameter, and/or not full length.
Second quality glass can have the properties of odd quality glass, but may also have small stones, air bubbles, vary in tone/shade, or the shape can be very out of round. Both odd and second quality glass can provide a great value to the right person.
