Who's up for a rousing game of "Name That Glass" ?
I have two rods of this that came in part of a bundle of Vetro dark brown transparent that I bought 2 1/2 years ago. I never knew they were different until this summer when I took the bundle apart to wash all the rods. These two do all sorts of neat stuff. They strike to bright blue. They get a neat green metallic sheen in a reduction flame. I don't know what this stuff is but I LOVE it and I want more. lol
It's a medium dark brown gray transparent color in rod form. The inside looks like clear dark brown, like coffee almost. The ring outside is like a milky brown or gray.
Here's the rod outside in the sun.
Here is an end view.
Here are some beads made with it.
I know the pictures are big but I was afraid if I went smaller people would ask for bigger for details.
Any help is greatly appreciated

I think that might be DH Ekho.

Where did you get the Vetro bundle?
I have some Van Gogh or Davinci, can't remember which, that look like that. You definitely have some sort of silver color.

Are you sure it is 104? Because my guess would be Bullseye Dark Aurora.
I love this game.

It is 104. I've encased it with Zephyr and SC with no problems. I got it from Frantz in July of 2010.

It does look like what BE Aurora does. But I doubt it is from Cinder's encasing post.
I am thinking Van Gogh too Or maybe Michelangelo?

2 years ago I ordered some Precision Sasha's Silver and got a few rods in the whole bundle looking exact the same.
The glass turns out a nice blue or green.

Ekho doesn't go metallic green and tends to be more purple/magenta when encased. It looks like Michelangelo/Sasha's Silver to me.

Oh, man! Whenever I get an unlabled rod mixup it's something like the white I used for snow turns out to be striking rose pink. That's GORGEOUS stuff, I hope you manage to find out what it is and get more!
