987 Amazon Night
Available in 4mm, 7mm, 12mm & frit.
Available in 4mm, 7mm, 12mm & frit.
Color Description: Yields night jungle colors—blue or green with metallic rainbows. It is a fun color to work with.
Properties: High color saturation, opal, heavy luster.
Working characteristics: Work like any silver color—very hot and in a neutral-to-oxidizing flame. Try flashing in a reducing flame prior to placing into the striking kiln. Use a buff wheel and silver polish and the piece will become reflective and the metallic sheen will be enhanced. Prolonged kiln striking may intensify the metallic sheen.
Tips: We recommend using 987 Amazon Night to set a neutral flame.
