Double Helix Elpis 2 Experiments

This blog will focus on Double Helix's glass named Elpis 2. 

Elpis 2 is a chrome-free green reducing glass that transmits a spring green color and is resistant to over reducing.

I tested it's compatibility on a base of Effetre Light Teal. Using stringers of Elpis 2, I drew scrolls and dots which I then reduced and encased with Super Clear.

The patterning of the Elpis 2 is lovely across the beads in this set.

I tested it's compatibility with CiM - Creation Is Messy's Atoll Misty using Elpis 2 surface level stream stringers that were reduced to an almost rainbow golden metallic shine.

The spacers are Elpis 2 lightly reduced!

This glass is showing as SOLD OUT on the CiM site, but it is available from my Canadian supplier at Nortel at this link.

To conclude, I also created simple tiny reduced spacers.
