Working Notes

This sulfur-bearing glass may react with gold-bearing lead (001311, 001215) and copper (001116, 001408, 001417, 000144, 000145, 000146) glasses to create dark interface (lead sulfide, copper sulfide). See our chart Reactive Potential of Bullseye Glasses for more information.

Very viscous; will flow later and less than other glasses. Generally more sensitive to heat-history and more likely to show variation in color after fusing than many opals. When fired on edge, a clear distinction between outside and interior surfaces is commonly seen (a variation used by designers). This glass may become increasingly white with repeated firings. Consider using glass from the same batch for a given project.

Dense White (000313) Reaction Note: The fired surface of French Vanilla does not react as readily to lead-bearing Dense White (000313), compared to firing the same combination in a single firing (using glass that has not previously been fired).\

Reaction Examples: The upper tile shows sulfur-bearing French Vanilla (000137-30) in various forms (-03, -02, -01, -08, -0507, -0107, -0272, -30), fired over lead-bearing Dense White (000313-30).

The lower tile shows lead-bearing Dense White (000313-30) in various forms (-03, -02, -01, -08, -0507, -0107, -0272, -30), fired over sulfur-bearing French Vanilla (000137-30).\

Examples of Lead (000313-0030 top) and Sulfur (000137-0030 bottom) Reactions

Copper-Bearing Glasses Reaction Note: French Vanilla will react to varying degrees with glasses containing copper. The sample below shows copper-bearing Turquoise Blue (000116) in various forms (-08, -01, -02, -03, -50, -30), fired over French Vanilla (000137, top half), with each then layered over with White (000113, bottom half). The area of interface and effects vary between French Vanilla and Turquoise Blue. The White does not react with either.

000116 fired on sulfur-bearing and non-sulfur-bearing base glasses.
