Default Color ID

Does anyone know what this color is? I thought it was a Momka's color because I have it in my Momka's shorts bin, but I just got a sampler and can't find it in there. It's a transparent rod with a hint of yellow and strikes to a creamy white(ish) color when encased. It's the cap on the jelly. TIA

hmm on second thought looking at the rod it might be citrus but I have never put it into to deep encasement like that so I don't know if it turns white. Maybe it turns white because of a reducing flame.

i'm tempted to say Cloud, but i think cloud is a touch greener in rod form.
i've got some crucible tubing that is cloud on the inside, with a striking blue on the outside and the center layer looks greenish...but that may be the blue overcoat shining through.

Thanks for the suggestions. I looked up both cloud and citrus and the rods seem to have more color than mine. Mine are nearly clear but have all these scratches and little lines, like a really scratched up clear rod but everything is inside, not on the surface. However they could be seconds or odds because they are not perfectly straight rods.

It is definitely a cool color that I'd like to get more of.

Could be a color called something like yellow pearl... the longer you work it the more opaque it gets.

You can send Momka Peva that shot and she could help you. I did that a few years ago with a daisy cane that they don't make anymore. Momka is very helpful and answers the email herself. Just go to the Momka site and you will find a contact link.
Nice Jellyfish by the way!

I vote for Momka Yellow Pearl. One of my favorite colors for bases to beads.

In rod form it loos like GA's Single Passion, but I would not expect to get white from it when encased...more of the Yellow Pearl like colors which are creamy yellow-white (most often)

I will let you know, thanks.

It does look similar to singular passion but I could've sworn it was a Momka's color.
