Vetrofond was a manufacturer in Italy that matched Effetre's colour number and compatibility. The company is no longer manufacturing lampworking glass so all Vetrofond is now limited edition.
A clear rod that strikes a deep pink. " How good this glass was to work with <3. In its rod form, this glass (no longer in production) is transparent and could be mistaken for a rod of clear glass so make sure you label your glass rods.

In the flame, it quickly developed a soft, gold-pink hue and the paddle shows how quickly the colour forms in the neutral flame.

Take care to melt this glass carefully and slowly as fast and furious will cause the glass to burn and tarnish, leaving behind dark smears that cannot be reversed.

The flower beads required quite some in the flame, allowing the colour to develop. The longer the time in the flame allowed the deeper the Rubino gold glass developed its colour.

Where the parts of the flower were thick (centre and base of leaves) the colour was saturated and intense. Where the molten glass was pressed between the metal glass leaf shapers, the glass became transparent leaving behind the soft, gold-pink colours around the tips of the leaves.

The flower beads were decorated with DH gold lustre glass. The round, hollow form shows how dense and saturated the beads can become when they are thick and do not allow the glass to show off its transparency."
