Need Help Finding a Lavender/Purple
I have a client that wants lavender and purple used in a design that is southwest looking...in order words, one that reacts with Ivory like turquoise. I went thru Mind Melt and didn't see one but there just has to be something. I work in both 104 and 96....can you please, please help! She also wants a pink that does the same thing....am I dreaming??
OR
A lavender/purple that works with silver foil without turning it brown/gold???

Well, I'm not sure what kind of reaction you have in mind exactly, but copper green, EDP and light ivory are a popular combo for SW styles that sounds like what she wants. I'm not sure the reaction with EDP and light ivory is that attractive. Not sure for the pink.... HTH

The copper in turquoise reacts with the sulphur in ivory to make the black line. Copper makes things greenish-blue, so isn't used in purple.

It's all about the color.

I have some charts testing out some of the various glasses as Frits, and one of the tests I did would answer your question since I test all of them on Ivory.
