BE 1859-30 rhubarb green/pink kicker

Post by Debora »

:?:
Hello! I am new to fusing and used BE1859 for the first time and was under the impression that it shifted color to green and pink after firing. When I did a full fuse it came out the same color as the original unfired glass.
Am I wrong about the two colors coming through after firing or did I do something wrong. I used the BE recommended firing schedule.
Thank you
Debora :D

The rb/gs changes color not after firing but in different kinds of light. It turns green in flourecent light and pink in natural light. So when there is a combination of light you can get the whole effect.
