Place to buy Rubino gold?
Any favorite places to buy rubino gold? I am looking for small amounts to play around with and make stringers for flowers. Just want to play and not spend tons, any ideas?
Thanks!
Christy

I got my Rubino from Frantz (they call it Pink Gold Premium and you can find it under Effetre Handmade Colors. Moretti & More also has it (under Moretti/Effetre Handmade Colors). It's $10 for 1/4 lb. at either place.
If you want to try it before you buy, I can give you a rod. I can drop it off to you where you work. PM or email me and we can set it up.

look at Rocio's web site. She has one of the best batches I've ever seen some through.

JameyLynn @ howacoglass.com sells glass by the single rod if you're looking to buy any color by singles--she has rubino (& lots of other things too!) She's a doll & charges exact shipping too, so you don't get uh, ripped off on shipping charges & also weighs her glass by the gram so you don't pay for more or less than you actually get!
Good packaging & clean glass too!

Do you have their website? Tried Googling and got all kinds of fun stuff, but not their website!

I love their rubino. A little goes a long way too. I love putting it on almost everything from opal yellow to EDP and white and making stringers for flowers. I think R4 has the best I've used in a very long time. If you want just a rod or two, send me a PM and I can help you out. I have some stringers that are already encased in rubino if you just want some to play around and test.

I have Rubino from many sources - but I think that Rocios "Perfect Rubino"
is the best I've found. It reacts perfectly!
