I mentioned buying an assortment of green glass rods from Devardi recently. At the same time, I purchased an assortment of blue glass rods:
Most of them have a distinct turquoise hue. I've been using them for larger hole beads, some for 2mm leather and some with big holes (greater than 4 mm):
It looks like these colors will expand my available colors in the turquoise range.
I'm a jewelry designer with a passion for making my own lampwork beads and jewelry findings. I'll be sharing what I'm learning at irregular intervals in this blog.

New toys
I just bought new mandrels and some new glass from Franz Art Glass and Supplies:
On the bottom, new mandrels (3/16 in) for big hole beads, in the middle Effetre Nessi, a limited edition transparent blue-green glass and on top, Effetre Spanish Leather, a shade of terra cotta.
I'll be experimenting with these over the next few weeks and I'll share what I find out.
