Default Help identify color

Hi, it is an Effetre color. It's a really pretty, pale lavendar color. I've seen some posts that say it's lavendar blue...but it's not. The same number is sometimes used to identify both, from what I've heard.





The bundle is Lavendar Blue, the single rod is the mystery rod. It can look anywhere from blue to a really pretty pinkie purple. You can see how different it looks in each image.
Thanks for your help. I have ordered the wrong glass twice now. =(

Hi Patti,

could be Effetre Alessandrite.
There's a pale version 080 and a darker one 081.
Lavender Blue 082 and the next in row is Dark Lavender Blue 083.

I think it's more purpley than Rosato. Maybe Alessandrite, not sure. It's pretty common, not sure why it's so hard to find.

I think it is 591080 Lavender Pale. (591082 is Blue Lavender.)

It's also possible that your bundle is 591046 Pale Amethyst Purple.

It could be one of the crocus odds from CIM, there was one that was transparent.
