This picture most acurately shows the green color of the beads interrupted.
This pic is interesting to me because the butterfly is fired at low fire cone 06 with a high fire glaze cone6. The gold color is from some Gilder's Paste that I got at a bead show recently. It is able to be polished when it dries. The gray color is a glaze that would have fired a nice blue if fired high enough. But the gray is sort of cool.
Green stoneware beads firing interrupted by power outage a few days ago. So the green may just be this color one time!! I am using them to make a bracelet for my daughter-in law-for Mother's Day. She is the best Mom ever!! Some clasps some ear wires and bead caps I made also in the photo. Two of them say MOM.
