The AuraTones are opalescent glasses meant to exist somewhere between transparent and opal. Each color has our characteristic atmosphere, or “Aura”, that can be intentionally amplified or subdued depending on working heat, thickness, layering, etc. In general, a hot direct flame will clear out the haze and a slow diffuse roast will grow the haze.
Our GemTones are glimmering, transparent glasses. We focus on optical clarity, deep saturation, and we strive to deliver glass that is as air-free as possible.
The OpalTones consist of opaque and semi-translucent glasses. These types of colors were often referred to as Opals in glassmaking.
Use the EffecTones when you are looking for unique hue gradations, flame-striking fun, and heady effects. Calypso and Quasar are currently pending reformulation. We are working on SANCDRAFTED versions of these as well as some fantastic new EffecTones!
Research and Development is the heartbeat of our company.
This category is devoted to batches that may or may not make it to full production. Some are early batches of color that lead up to a final version – typically denoted as “Beta”, and some are still very early experiments.
The Beta batches are going to be close in color and formulation to the production version and are fairly self-explanatory. The more experimental batches are aimed at the truly adventurous soul – willing to try something new and different for the sake of exploring uncharted territory. We will do our best to describe what those colors are like and provide an example image or two, but ultimately they need to be played with to be truly appreciated.
