DH TH-473 - Is It Similar To OK-326?
Has anyone bought and made beads with TH-473 from the latest DH test batches yet? I'm desperately looking for an OK-326 replacement and haven't found it yet. Already tried OK-426, not quite what I'm looking for.

On the fence about getting TH-473 without seeing any beads made with it.

Ari'elle - it's nothing like OK426. TH-473 is something completely new from Jed. I hope to have some test beads photographed early next week to show.

I got a rod of TH-473 last week but I just made some test beads with it so far
the first one is reduced, it reduces to a dark green luster, hard to photograf but you get the Idea
I found it hard to keep the green luster under encasement, in that way its different from OK-426 where I found it easy to get it to keep the dark green under encasement, I found TH-473 hard to strike at all under encasement
if you work it in a neutral flame it gets baby blue, reduce softly to get green, reduce more to get a green mirror luster
these are just test beads so they are not that fancy 
reduced
reduced and encased
