Title: Turquoise coloured silver glass
Post by: princess pink on July 02, 2010, 01:42:19 PM
Can't remember what it's called but seen a silver glass that reduces to a shimmer turquoise. Possible by double helix. Any ideas?

Sorry, I haven't tried the tag stuff - v. expensive, it just rang a bell when you said turquoise!
I have some elektra, I did wonder if you meant that - I have never really got on with it though.

Hi I used Tag Taxco over Cim Mermaid for the 3 larger beads and the small spacers were Cim Mermaid, just love this color.

Hi,
I vote for Electra 2. I have only used it once, but it fits the description you want.

i'd vote for gaia, i've got a bead from kate that is a very similar colour and its gaia (and gorgeous of course!)

I vote Gaia too. I can get that colour by heavy reduction, burn it off a bit and flash in reducing flame.
