Item Name: Double Helix Aion Rod SKU: DHGAION Description: Double Helix Aion Rod is a lampworking color rod formulated for 104 COE glass. It is manufactured as a solid colored glass rod intended to be worked in a torch for making beads, pendants, marbles, and small sculptural components. Double Helix colors are used when you want specialty effects that develop through flame chemistry and heatwork, producing shifts in tone, depth, and surface character that standard transparent and opaque colors do not provide. Aion is commonly chosen for artists who want a reactive color that can be used as a base, as striping, or as surface decoration to create complex visual effects that change with flame atmosphere and working temperature. How it is used: Introduce the rod to the flame gradually to prevent thermal shock, then heat to a workable glow and apply it to your piece as a base layer, wrap, or surface design. Adjust your flame chemistry and heatwork to develop the color, working hotter for smoother application and using controlled flame changes to bring out the reactive effects. After decoration is applied, allow the piece to soak at an even heat to stabilize the surface, then place it into a kiln and anneal with a schedule appropriate for 104 COE . Dimensions: 12" Length 5mm - 7mm Diameter
