Default Burgundy?

I need to figure out how to make burgundy for a wedding party unless there's already a burgundy that I don't know about in coe 104. Any suggestions?

If you don't mind mixing glass, here's a recipe that I copied down. I'm not sure where I found it.

(oh, and it's Moretti)

Opaque burgundy – 1 part 438 Purple Red, 2 parts 220 Periwinkle

Thanks Corri.
I've got 438 and periwinkle on hand so I'll give that a try.
Thank you so much, everyone for your suggestions and the other links.

Bright red encased in Dark Amethyst then etched makes a to die for deep red.

I like transparents, so a clear core, layer of dk amethyst, and then a layer of striking red make an awesome garnet trans.

Default Here's some results.

Ok, I tried a few things. Anything with purple red came out yukky. I usually have not good results with it and yet the end of the rod after using it is really a pretty red.......
The first is rubino over periwinkle and the second is dark amethyst over light red.....
