Test Results :: Porpoise
Porpoise (CiM828) is a medium grey opaque. When it is molten, it is disconcertingly green in colour. I thought for sure that the finished beads would be greenish, but they aren't in the least.
Reducing Porpoise turns it brown.
Porpoise seems to fall somewhere between Effetre Light Gray and Effetre Dark Gray in hue. It's much darker than Pearl Grey, and less blue/green than Bayou, another new CiM colour.
On top of Porpoise, reduced silver turns yellow under encasement.
Porpoise gets an interesting light border around TerraNova2 frit, and the colours really popped in my reduction frit bead. It seems like it might be an interesting base colour for silver glass.
Porpoise separates on top of Tuxedo, Copper Green, and Peace. It spreads out on top of Opal Yellow, and develops a brownish dark line reaction with Ivory.
On top of Porpose, Copper Green separates and Ivory develops a dark shadow line around its edges that looks like it has texture.
These beads contain some Porpoise.
