503154 -2 Iris 2 Double Helix Glass Rod

Description

Iris 2 is made in our updated color base.  Designed specifically for exterior applications, Iris yields a strong oil slick effect and maintains its pearlescence under encasement.

For all reduction techniques, cool the glass before reducing and keep the glass from overheating (turning orange).

For rainbow iridescent; use a large brush reduction flame, briefly pass the glass right through the candles, repeating until the colors develop.

For mirrored silver luster; rotate the bead further out in a reduction flame. Repeat until the desired luster is visible.

For textured satin; repeatedly pass the bead through the very farthest reaches of the reduction flame without letting the bead get hot again.

See our pictorials for making a bead with a brush reduction flame.
Here’s a short video of the process.
