It's brand new, it looks darker than amber rose though. I think frantz has it and Howaco will have it in the next few days.

I then heat the glass on each mandrel into a gather and smoosh them together then slowly stretch and fold the glass until it's well incorporated. Actually it's not so much of a fold as I try to slide the glass over itself to avoid making too many bubbles. When I feel that it's mixed properly I pull the gather into a rod/stringer. That's it.

Hey, I just saw that this tutorial got 5 stars - Yipee - thanks!!!
...bumped the technique from page 1

I believe Devardi makes a close match to the original amber rose.

Bump.
I found this picture of a bead that calls for a base of Amber rose and double helix CE 352 which I have a few rods of. Been wondering what yo do with it. Now I know!

Hi, This looks very useful Does anyone have an idea what the Moretti colours/numbers translate to in Effetre please? I've looked for these on Martin Tuffnell's site but can't find them.

Thanks loads!

Handyann, these look to be the equivalent:

Trans lav blue (same number at the end, 082)
http://frantzartglass.com/effetre-ro...ods-591082.asp

And yellow straw, also with same 049:

Amber Rose is no longer available. The Effetre numbers would be the same as the Moretti.

Edit: I find both the lavender and the straw yellow by searching the Tuffnell's site for "591XXX" where XXX is the color number. Lavender is called Rose on their site.

Ah - thank you both very much. I did find the Rose listed when I did a search on Tuffy's site, but of course didn't relate it to Lavender Blue - why would you??!

I'll go and try again.

Thanks again, Ann

Oh yummy!!!!
Thanks for everyone's work/fun with this....I have been making (playing at making) beads since 2000....
It just proves what I once said is TRUE...we don't even know what we don't know
And
The more we know, the less we don't know
I am soooo glad to 'know' this is even possible
