Green pea
Is Moretti green pea similar in color to Vetrofond green pea or do I need to try to find some of the remaining Vetrofond? Just really fond of this color.
Thanks.

Green Pea
Pea Green is my favorite color!
The Effetre and Vetrofond are almost identical in color.
CIM Elphaba has more blue in it, approaching Effetre Nile green.

Thank you. Elphaba is a pretty color but there is just somethibg about green pea that draws my eye.
Nice to know that I don't have to super stock up and hoard!

This is weird as my CIM Elphaba is quite the same to my Effetre Pea Green. When I put them side by side, I can barely see the difference. The difference is when I use it.
Effetre Pea Green have the tendancy to spread as the Elphaba is very stable.
It looks nothing like Nile Green to me...

I didn't know about an Elphaba unique. Thanks for the information!
If CIM ever stop making Elphaba, I will be the saddest person on earth!
I do not even use the Effetre anymore! hehe

Maybe next time I order glass I'll get some elphaba to try again. I like the part about it not spreading. Thanks.

Must be different batches. The colors I have are different enough that I use Pea for a leaf, and Elphaba for the vein because it stands out.

I also use Elphaba instead of Pea Green, and Freman instead of effetre sky blue, and Smurfy for turquoise.

I know they say that different computer monitors can sometimes produce different results in color but I don't see any difference in those three at all.
I have Effetre Pea Gree, CIM elphaba and the elphaba unique but no vetro pea green.
