Blizzard Blue - ODDS - Trautman

Blue Blizzard is transparent to semi-opaque cobalt shot through with flecks of white glass “snow” that Trautman made especially for the Blizzard colors. The white bits remain distinct, even after working the piece, and rough rods smooth out nicely in the flame. Should be worked in a neutral or oxidizing atmosphere to prevent graying. Blue Blizzard most resembles the stone Lapis Lazuli or old-fashioned speckled enamel-on-metal camping dishes.

Odd quality glass is first quality glass that is out of round, thinner/thicker than normal, has a taper, varies in diameter and/or is not full length. Odd quality glass can provide a great value to the right person.
