Glass Alchemy Chartreuse Crayon rod

Description

The Glass Alchemy Chartreuse Crayon rod is an intense and vibrant green. Its cadmium base gives it a unique yellowish hue. This color remains dense even when pulled into very thin stringers. It is perfect for all types of glass creations. Glass artists appreciate its ease of working. It melts smoothly and evenly.

For best results, always preheat the rod in the outer region of the flame. Avoid rapid heating that could damage the color. Chartreuse Crayon prefers gentle working. A well-adjusted flame keeps its texture smooth and creamy.

You can use this color without encasement. It is stable and durable. When working on small details, watch the separation point between the rod and the piece. This spot melts easily but may bubble slightly. To avoid bubbles, fold or push the molten area into the piece. A small dab of clear glass can also protect this fragile point. Avoid overheating this area directly.

Chartreuse green is known as the most visible color to the human eye. It is a bright and captivating shade. It adds a luminous touch to all your creations. Paired with dark colors like Grape, it creates a strong and elegant contrast. This contrast highlights details and shapes.

Chartreuse Crayon is ideal for artists seeking a vibrant and easy-to-handle color. Its density ensures a rich and deep finish. It suits both large pieces and small detailed elements. This color adds life and character to your glass art.

Glass artist Mike Shelbo recommends using Chartreuse Crayon with Grape, a deep violet from Glass Alchemy. The pairing creates a striking contrast. The bright green of Chartreuse enhances the dark richness of Grape. Together, they offer a beautiful visual balance and energize your creations.
