This is how you use Silver Brown correctly: First, roll it in the frit and melt it down as usual. Let the bead cool slightly and strike it in the back of the flame. Let it cool slightly again. Reduce it briefly and lightly until an oil film is visible (it should not turn gray). Then either encase it or lightly polish over it with a neutral flame. Used over black, it produces a bluish shimmer.

Or simply use it on Effetre ivory (light or dark). It creates great effects!

The frit mixtures available so far usually have a COE of 92-98.
The glass used has the advantage of being very color-intensive and producing beautiful reactions, but it also has several disadvantages: many colors tend to devitrify, contain a lot of lead, and react strongly with silver.
Above all, however, a COE that differs from the glass of the base bead and the encasement can lead to difficulties.

Therefore, we have decided to offer frits and frit mixtures in COE 104.
