Northstar Mint rod

Description

The Northstar Mint rod is a bright semi-opaque green that offers excellent versatility for glass creations. This color is atmospherically stable and can be worked in any flame without the hue shifting, giving artists complete control over their projects. It works beautifully as a background color, bringing brightness and freshness to every piece.

Mint glass should be heated slowly to prevent boiling, but it remains easy to handle and tolerant of temperature variations. Its stability and workability make it an excellent color for both beginners and experienced artists. However, when stretched too thin, it loses intensity, which limits its use for stringer applications but makes it ideal for sculpture, overlays, and detailed projects.

Mint pairs wonderfully with other colors to create subtle and dynamic effects. A light coating of NS-003 Multi adds depth and tonal variations, visually enriching each creation. Artists can experiment with layering to achieve sophisticated luminous effects and delicate color transitions.

This color allows for precise and consistent work. Complex shapes and intricate patterns stand out beautifully thanks to Mint’s balanced saturation and consistent quality. Its stability during annealing ensures reliable, professional-grade results for every project.

NS-058 Mint transforms each piece into a bright, eye-catching work of art. Its versatility, ease of use, and stability make it an essential tool for glass artists who want to explore new techniques, create innovative effects, and produce refined projects with consistently impressive results.
