Glass Alchemy Dragon’s Eye rod

Description

The Glass Alchemy Dragon’s Eye rod is an exceptional surface color that offers a rich and varied palette. This deep green is enhanced with a dose of color-shifting silver, creating natural, organic variations without overpowering the base tone. If you like the Amazon Night color, this softer version will charm you with its subtlety.

This color is highly versatile: you can work it on the surface either unencased for a vibrant, dynamic effect or encased for softer, more harmonious tones. Using a flame with slightly more oxygen than usual when working unencased sets the stage for an effective striking process at the end of your piece. By increasing the propane in your flame, you trigger reduction that brings out a metallic rainbow with shades of blue, green, yellow, orange, and violet—a true iridescent spectacle.

The Glass Alchemy Dragon’s Eye rod is suitable for both torchwork and kiln work (strike at 1075°F / 580°C). The final look will vary depending on your technique, but the result always maintains a depth and richness that captures the eye.

Whether you’re making beads, sculptures, or other glass art pieces, this color brings a touch of magic and originality to your work.
