Deep Cobalt Blue intensifies a classic glassmaking colour into a saturated, commanding presence. Dense yet luminous, it holds its own in bold compositions.
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.
Like Bullseye sheet glass, stringers are made by hand, and slight variation is normal.
