Ruby Slippers First Quality Rod

Exp. #155 is a transparent sparkly red named “Ruby Slippers” after the old school version Northstar made over 15 years ago! This newest formula uses a Pomegranate base red with a TAG Stardust sparkle. With little to no air content, this glass is easy to use in all flame atmospheres. As a kiln striking red, it’s recommended to strike for 6-8 hours at 1050f. This color is a great option for overlays and color combos!

This color uses Pomegranate, the lightest shade of the kiln-striking ruby family Northstar currently offers. Because this color is so unsaturated, the final strike must take place in a kiln. The strike is easily repeatable, and the final color is not affected by soaking in the kiln for long periods of time

Note: The sparkle is hard to capture in photos and looks best in natural sunlight!

First quality rods are visually inspected to our highest quality standards. These rods are 5-8mm diameter, 16” to 20” long, have minimal forming issues and represent our best efforts to reduce air and stoning issues for increased workability.
