Reichenbach Dark Multicolor and Multicolor
Posted on
Experimenting with Reichenbach CoE 94(+/-2) Dark Multicolor and Multicolor rods (lampwork cane). Beads before and after being kilned, and beads before and after being etched. Set one and set two were made with the same glass, but at different times. I'm not sure what I did to achieve such different colours from the same glass, but I think that one set was made on a more neutral flame and the other set were made on a flame with a little more oxyen in it. Set three were made on a neutral flame; I noticed that with the Multicolor if I made the flame hotter the colour became darker.
