Working Notes
A copper glass. May have a dark colour reaction at the interface with cadmium/selenium or sulfur glasses including 000125, 000120, 001120, and 000137. It may have a colour reaction with Reactive glasses such as 000009, 001009, 001019. Tests fired to a full fuse indicate that Glacier Blue Opalescent reacts, though not with the intensity of other copper-bearing glasses such as 000216. For example, Reactions with 001009 and 000009 are lighter compared to those with 000216 while there are no visible reactions with 001019.
Frits are versatile and can be used in:
- Pate de verre and kilncasting
- Kilnforming, including glass sketching and painting with light techniques
- Torchworking and blowing, to create colours and patterns on surfaces.
