-
Cranberry Pink blends red and pink into a hue historically favoured in decorative glass and domestic objects. Warm and inviting, it softens contrast while retaining presence.
Stringers offer Bullseye colour in a fine, linear format for detailed kilnformed and torchworked glass. Pulled from remelted Bullseye Compatible sheet glass, they retain the character and working properties of the original colour in a slender, versatile form.Used for linework, stringer sheets, borders, and surface patterning, they can be laid on the surface, embedded between layers, or arranged to build graphic and rhythmic compositions. For a practical example, see our Quick Tip: Fine Lines.
These stringers are available in 0.5 mm for a fine line and are approximately 451 mm long.They are packaged in clear plastic tubes measuring 457 mm long and 19 mm in diameter. Counts per tube vary by thickness and colour.

Working Notes
Torch: 001311-0576 strikes a deep transparent pink in the flame. Work in a cooler, oxidising atmosphere. May develop a light brown colour on the surface of the glass if worked in the presence of too much propane (or fuel).
Kiln: A linear, streaked design may develop upon firing and may be visible whether fired lengthwise or on end. Hue and saturation may also differ slightly when compared to sheet glass; a wider range is accepted due to changes that occur in the forming process.
See Working Notes under the Sheet Glass tab for additional firing information.
Other
Consider encasing with clear to protect the surface from developing a light brown colour in the hotter, neutral flame chemistry that you would use for most other styles. We advise labelling all striking glasses.
