Northstar Odds   

First-quality glass that is outside of the normal shape or diameter, odds may be thin, thick, tapered, or short. They are a great way to save on color!

Millennium Moss

Millennium Moss is a bright semi-opaque aventurine color. It is suitable for blown work and some stringer applications. Even when thinned, it will remain sparkly and bright. To keep Millennium Moss pure green, work in a neutral to slightly oxidizing flame. If worked in a reducing flame the color will develop reddish streaks. Be sure to anneal thoroughly when heavily cased. Try Millennium Moss over Star White for a vibrant effect. Also, try layering Multi over Millennium Moss.

Available in Rod.
