Default Nothern Lights - Caliente Glass

Hi

I was wondering if anyone could show me an example of a bead using the Northern Light Caliente glass. I purchased some in the garage sale section and...well it looks like clear glass.

I am moving house so my torch is packed up ready to move ...but i would really like to know what i have purchased.

Any help greatly appreciated

Mon

I sold my one and only (awesome) bead in Tucson before getting a photo. It's a VERY subtle effect, like micro dichroic glass. It works best if backed by black or dark blue/green/purple transparent and HEAVILY encased. The more encasing the better magnified the sparkle gets.

I'll make a new bead tomorrow and try to remember to post it. Otherwise, give me a nudge by PM. It's really a pretty effect.
