Fascination...

A reactive glass murrini that, once reduced, has an iridescent sheen that is just gorgeous! These are capable of producing beautiful Pinks, Purples, Golds and Greens and even a bit of orange in there :) Much prettier in person!

How Many: 20

Colors: (after cooking) Yeilds different shades of pinks, greens and purples depending on reduction and heat intensities

Size: ranges from 2.5mm - 5mm across

To use: These are made with a reactive glass so they'll need to be "reduced" in the flame. Simply heat a spot on your bead, waft the murrini slice in the flame to warm it up a bit and stick it in the spot you want it in. Alternate heating and flattening until it's flush w/ the surface. Get the murrini VERY hot in a neutral flame then cool fast on a cold tool. Waft in the back of a reduction flame to get a sort of iridized, mirror finish. Then cover in clear, careful not to erase that mirror sheen.

*Some experience with striking and reducing silver glass is necessary. Not a good beginner murrini
