Title: Dark Rosata?
Post by: Amber on February 07, 2011, 04:38:02 PM

I've just got my dark rosata from Tuffnells...and they are doing their best to confuse me! :D

The label on them says purple blue ??? but the code - 083 - is correct for dark rosata!

So what colour is the rosata in rod form? Mine are very pink, a lot like Cim Blush, not purple or blue at all, so I assume they are the right ones. Just wanted to check before I get stuck in!

I got some from truffnells on sunday and that was labeled D. Rosato 083. Its a darkish pink transparent. I do not have any CIM Blush so can not say it is like that sorry.

That sounds about right - they're also called dark lavender blue and it pretty much just means they are a bluer pink than the other pinks! Not sure if they colour shift like lavender - it could depend on your lighting. From other people's pics in the colour of the month challenge, pink is right.

Sometimes glass can be called by different names - but if you go by the number you'll be fine. And if it's like blush then I'd say it's right!
