Item Name: Moretti Effetre Rod - Transparent Medium Blue - 4mm - 6mm SKU: 1556054 Description: This is a transparent medium blue Effetre glass rod made for soft-glass lampworking. It is produced as a straight rod in the 4–6mm diameter range, giving you a comfortable feed rate for steady heating, clean gathers, and consistent application in the flame. Blue Medium is a versatile transparent that sits in the “workhorse” range for blues: strong enough to read clearly, but not so dark that it loses light transmission. It is a reliable choice for beads, small sculptural work, and layered color where you want depth without overpowering adjacent transparents. How it is used: Preheat the rod gradually in the far flame, then bring it up to working temperature. Build a gather and wind onto a mandrel for bead bases or spacer beads. Pull stringer for fine lines, scrollwork, and controlled detail. Use for dots and overlays to add transparent depth over compatible soft-glass colors. Layer with other transparents to create smooth blends and dimensional color. Dimensions: Rod diameter: 4mm – 6mm Show more
