Corina Envy Green

[fatdogdesigns]

Has anyone used this color? On the Frantz website it looks more pea green than olive, and I'd rather have an olive color like the Lauscha forest green. I just wanted to know if anyone has used it (and do you have pics?) before I spend $26 on a pound of it. Whatcha think? :confused:
Thanks!

do you have a link to the color? I'm just curious what it looks like...have never used it.

I got about 1/2 lb of this in a bit ago from Galaxy Glass...I think it's the same thing (although she doesn't use Corina's name, just calls it Envy Green). I haven't used it yet, haven't been in the studio for a few weeks. I can run home and check on it and let you know later....

I used the Corina/Envy/Olive green in this set with red roof tile and ink blue:

Probably not one of the colors that just blows me away, but I like it because I do not have another similar transparent.

I have some too, haven't used it, but in the rod it's almost a cross between Lt. olivine and apple green.

Ginny,,, That's a georgous set. I like that color of green.

I thought it was a nice olive-y green, rather than a pea green. Here it is in some lentils with sage green decorations:

Wow, I love both of these sets! Especially with the tile red. Here's the link to the Frantz page:

It looks good as an etched bead, doesn't it?
Thanks,

I love it - I used it in this set with Uranium Yellow Opaque and assorted purples.

HMMM, I like what I'm seeing here vs what I saw on the website. Oh no, more glass for Lara. EEK

If I were going to compare Envy with another color, I would say it is VERY close to 020 Effetre Transparent Light Grass Green, but Envy is just a fraction of a hint more topaz.

Thank you!! I forgot to mention how much I love the other two sets posted - I love the color combos in the first set, and the way the green captures the stringer designs in the second. YUM!!
