Default Vetrofond Cream

Does anyone know if Vet. cream is reactive at all, similar to ELO?

Nope, no one?

I have some cream rods mixed in somewhere with my whites or ELO, or I'd try them. They're on sale, and I've been looking for some semi-reactive neutral bases.

I have some of that color. It's been a long time I used it but I don't recall it being reactive. It does have a blue hue to it. What is ELO ?

I use vetrofond cream quite a bit. Not a terribly reactive color, but I really love it. I have fumed it with silver, and gotten some really nice marbling. Here is a link to a bead on my Etsy shop that is a base of cream fumed with silver. I lost the actual photos in a computer crash or I'd just post the pic here.

Thanks Debbie, yeah I'm trying to pick it out by the color cast. ELO is extra light olive, and it is a faint green...fun...teach me not to label.

Nina, that is a gorgeous bead. Thanks so much.

It reacts as it forms a black line with turquoise and silver colors, but not mottled like ivory. I find it similar to ELO.
