Description

Northstar Lava frit is an intense opaque orange, perfect for bringing your glass creations to life. This high-quality frit offers a bright and stable color, ideal for techniques such as stringer work, blowing, and torch sculpture. Thanks to its specific formulation, Lava reacts well to an oxidizing flame, ensuring excellent color retention even during delicate work. However, be careful to work slowly and in a soft flame to prevent glass boiling, a phenomenon to which this color is sensitive.

Lava is easy to apply by rolling, sprinkling, or direct fusing onto a hot piece. It adheres optimally as soon as the glass surface reaches the right temperature, which facilitates its incorporation at all stages of hot work. This frit offers a wide range of artistic possibilities: it brightens your pieces while maintaining beautiful depth and remarkable opacity. To protect the color, you can also encase Lava with clear glass, though this is not mandatory.

A recommended technique for an even more spectacular effect is to apply a layer of Ruby over the Lava frit, creating unique contrasts and shades. Whether you are a professional glassmaker or an enthusiastic hobbyist, this frit will add a unique touch to your work.

We also offer the Northstar Lava rod, ideal for stringer applications or torch sculpture. By combining rod and frit, you achieve perfect color consistency and great technical versatility. Thanks to this synergy, easily explore new textures and colorful effects.

Choose Northstar Lava frit and rod to enrich your borosilicate glass palette and reveal the full power of opaque orange in your artistic creations.
