Crippy Rod

This Next-Gen Transparent is a rework of one of Glass Alchemy's original transparent colors, Kryptonite. Using next-level production techniques, Crippy has a high refractive index and optical clarity found in Glass Alchemy's Next-Gen Transparent line.

Working Tip: For best results, work in a neutral flame. 

Artist Description:

Crippy is a rich and vibrant transparent green that has little to zero air content and high clarity. This color is extremely workable in all situations including hollow, solid and long working projects. It can be used with or without encasement in clear. It is crucial in the rainbow palette of Next-Generation Transparents from Glass Alchemy and when blending with other cool colors.

Crippy can be blown out thin for a strong green tint over clear, white or other colors. This color is great for layering and fades as well.

Don't overwork in a heavy propane flame and on a project with long working time, lower your kiln holding temperature to 980°-1015° F, until it's time to anneal at 1040° F. 

Crippy is beautiful when paired with Sno White, Lemon Drop or Purple Rain as well as many other colors both opaque and transparent.
