Default Glasshawk Apricot

Does anyone have experience with this color?

I bought some from Vapor Glass and have been playing with it. Its totally awsome!!! Small round beads have a clear orangey topaz color with threads of redish purple. Larger beads (meaning for me, I worked the glass more) its an antique yellow honey color and begins to become more opaque.

I have no idea if I am using the color correctly, but either way, I love the results. I'll post some pictures later.

The base of the three focal beads is the apricot glass. The tiny test beads are also apricot, one is apricot over star white.

I have some I got from ABR and the stuff is great. There is also a color called Carmello from Glasshawk that is great as well. It's a silver based caramel that hold its color for me. I am butterscotch challenged and mine always turns purple or poop when I don't want it so I love this carmello.

Very nice! Does it strike as easily as the reds? Glasshawk makes some awesome glass!

I haven't tried their other colors, but will soon!!! Not sure if I am striking it correctly on the larger beads because of the honey color, but I like it anyway
