Description

Juno is a handpulled silver glass by Trautman Art Glass. Sold per 115g (1/4 pound) or per rod. Rods are 3-7mm dia. Compatiable with other 104 coe glasses.

This glass is a transparent pink reactive glass is mostly a reducing colour.  To make it more opaque strike in a reduction flame. You can achieve more blues from reducing with little or no oxygen, and more greens from reducing with more oxygen in my mix.  Juno alone will be amer when first reduced, but reheating in a netural flame can bring more pink up in the base. 

This glass will strikes a bit over ivory to a range of colours from pink and purple to periwinkle blue and even a coppery colour. The cooler you apply the Juno to Ivory, the pinker. The hotter the glass goes on, the more amber/copper you will achieve. Don't overwork Juno.  If you no longer see an unusual yellow glow when heating it, you are burning the colour out of it.  A good rule  is "three strikes and get out". Juno may or may not play well with other brands of clear glass. You need to test for compatibility with the clear you intend to use, and aneal it a little longer and hotter.  At the upper end of the 975-980 range. Juno anneals at an oxidizing atmosphre that can strip away a reduction finish.
