Artist Description by Mike Shelbo
Caramel Luster is a great color for surface work and you can combine it with clear to bring out more of the colors trapped inside.  A light reduction (more propane in the flame) will yield hints of blue, green and metallic silver.    This color can be used in a thin application as a tint or a medium-thick to dense application will give you a more opalescent translucent look to the glass.  A whole range of caramels from light golden to deeper transparent brown can be achieved through a combination of flame settings and kiln times.
