Oracle-754.opl (1/4 lb)

Slow Opal

SKU: 10 Categories: ,

Description

754.opl is a slow opal that strikes in the flame and kiln. When reset it is crystal clear and when fully struck it’s milky opaque white.   Areas that have started to opacify in the flame will continue to opacify  in the annealer.  Striking temperatures are lower than that of our silver glasses.

Working notes:
This slow opal stays mostly reset during many beadmaking operations, and will strike to a misty-opal during annealing.  I anneal this color at  975°F for up to five hours for misty-opal beads, depending on size, encasement, and other factors.  Your kiln is probably different than mine. Test beads are recommended.
