For what it's worth, last summer I made a variety of beads out of satake. They are ugly & I left them in a baggie on my balcony (where I torch) since then. (Bad beads! stay outside in the cold!) They haven't broken yet.... I cooled them in an unplugged crockpot of vermiculite.
& there's no way I'd sell those freaky things, someday when I suck less at the crazy volcano torch & crazy soft glass & can make stuff I'm will to show others, yet alone sell, I'll anneal them.
