Default soft glass rings

"so I am curious how you, Daria, have had such great luck keeping the darn things in one piece" (quote from Deb)~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well... if you could see the scars and cuts all over my 'manual laboring' hands right now, you would see that the rings I wear go through a lot of abuse. I do take my annealing very seriously.
What I can tell you is: definitely do not to use Dark Silver Plum for the main band material. Those break (for me, anyway)! Too bad, because I love the look of it. I haven't tried any other fancy silvered glass, either, because of this.

Due to my studies in Physical Science, I've always figured that if I were to break one while wearing it, that the glass would break 'away' from my finger, not 'into' it. Now your injury worries me... I hope you weren't hurt too bad.
