Description
This batch of Gold Ruby is over-struck compared to our standard 1st quality. The color is ruby, but may be a bit more blueish in transmitted light because of the extra haze on the surface. See images for examples under different lighting. The haze is very prominent under harsh lighting and especially with a flash.
Gold Ruby is a rich, smooth working GemTone™ made entirely from scratch here in the USA. For hollow work, we recommend solid color blowouts to fully appreciate the clarity and saturation of this Museum-Quality glass.
Unworked rods may vary in saturation, but the color will fully strike in as it is flameworked. For very small applications, try gathering the rod and pulling down to desired diameter to develop the color. For hollow work, we recommend solid color blowouts to fully appreciate the clarity and saturation of this Museum-Quality glass.
Recommended Garage/Anneal temp: 1065°F
