New From Bullseye Glass

January 2009

 

New: Sheet Glass

Opalescent colors

Plum Striker 000332
Cool and light lavender-blue in the cold sheet. With heatwork, ripens to a rich, warm redviolet.


Opaline Striker 000403
Even more ethereal than Translucent White (000243). Paradoxically, transmitted light is both softened and made fierier, viewed through Opaline.
Layer with itself or with colors.

Periwinkle 000118
True to its name, a medium blue-violet that abounds in nature.


Reactive Cloud 000009
Opalescent white. Has potential to react under kiln heat with some copper-bearing glasses and silver leaf and foil. Fired solo, its whiteness is slightly
bluer and more translucent than White (000113).

Transparent colors

Reactive Ice Clear 001009
Colorless clear. Has the potential to react with some
copper-bearing glasses and silver leaf and foil.

Brown Topaz Tint 001819
Barely beige in the transparent sheet. Deepens to a pale tan in thicker sections. Recommended for casting, where areas more than two inches thick reveal a rich, warm brown.

Light Rhubarb Shift Tint 001858
A version of Rhubarb (001859), but with much less color saturation. Appears pale green in single-sheet thickness. Recommended for casting.

Olivine Tint 001877
Pale earthy green. Deepens to soft shades of olive in thicker sections. Recommended for casting.

Lavender Green Shift Tint 001844
In applications less than 6 mm thick, appears pale lavender. Viewed in thicker sections, the color shifts to blue-green. Recommended for casting.

Aventurine Blue 001140
Very dense midnight blue with tiny sparkles.

***NOT AVAILABLE YET***

Streaky colors

These new styles offer elemental mixes—suggesting fire, sky, and water. Unless otherwise noted, streaky glasses are suitable for both fusing and cold applications.


Aqua Blue Tint 002218
White Atmospheric aqua with ethereal white streaks—evoking light sky. Combine with 003116
to create air with some depth.


Light Turquoise Blue, True Blue 002416
A mix of warm and cool blues. It’s popular with
users looking for a “watery” glass. Combine with more colorsaturated 002116 for a feeling of deeper sea.



Turquoise Blue, Deep Royal Blue 002116
Conjures up visions of deep or active water— from rivers and lakes to oceans. To create even greater depth, ply with 002416.


Clear, Turquoise Blue, White 003116
Intense turquoise softened by clear and white suggests bright sky. Layer with 002218 for an airy look that extends far beyond the surface.


Yellow, Red Striker 002125
With heatwork, displays dramatic red and yellow flames. The cold sheet, a mild-mannered yellow with orange wisps, is not recommended for stained glass.
