Title: Whats this glass?
Post by: bearyboo on August 17, 2013, 10:27:10 AM
I have a few purple glass rods that have a yellow core. The purple is a slighly bright purple and the yellow is quite dull. Does anyone know which glass it is as it is not labelled up?

The only thing I can think of is the veiled cane that you can get from USA perhaps?

It sounds like Calico - there's a picture of an end of a rod here: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_5LcIoEesYjs/TDvILkVja-I/AAAAAAAAEMA/f3OnUhXky9s/s400/DSC_9691.JPG

Could it be EDP? I'm sure I've had EDP with a slightly yellowy centre.

Thanks but it does not appear to be any of those  ??? I think my best bet would be to take a picture of the end of the rod! I used a bit today, I put it over ivory and the purple turned almost brown with a red and yellow twing through the middle of it.

The end does resemble calico slightly though.

Thanks for you advice  :)
