Fine Silver interaction with BE 0124 red. with a pic

Post by jim simmons »

fine silver wire sandwiched between 2 pieces of BE0124.

Not what I expected, but a nice touch. When you look at the chicklet end, on the area where the fine silver enters the glass, is a very nice sea blue.

I regularly make pendants and bracelets with this combination, it looks awesome on charms! I use radium rainbow dichro on clear on top- I sell a lot of them. I also use 1334 gold purple with fine silver in the same way, it turns khaki green at the silver connection, and 0122? orange opal turns similar to the red. I have found the reactions to be very attractive.
