Default 96 reactive ivory

I haven't tried all the available 96 colors yet, but of what I have tried, I haven't yet found one that does the beautiful, silver-reactive magic of either Effetre or Vetrofond regular and dark ivory. If anyone knows of one that is available in cane, I would love to hear about it! If not... do you think if we 96-lovers were vocal about it, someone would make one?

Psssst, manufacturers of COE 96 colors! We want a silver-reactive ivory, preferably one that striates and curdles!

I should have put a poll in the thread! Anyone know who we could email to ask for this? Perhaps Gaffer would be interested?

I was looking at colors... has anyone tried R-161? That's one I appear to have missed. I'll have to try it in my next order.

..yet, because someone will make it ?

Yes. I've tried them all and none are reactive except the Zimmerman Z86.

Spectrum glass (System 96) has been receptive to new color suggestions. They are nice to talk to / deal with ... it's worth a shot.

I've been pestering them about that since they first introduced lampworking cane... in fact, I even took them a sample of Effetre ivory and said please please please! Maybe if a BUNCH of us ask, they'll realize that it really is something that is badly wanted.

Hmmmm, a little birdie told me that in my supply order that I will be receiving tomorrow that I am going to have two new reactive 96coe rod colors. Rumor has it it is a reactive transparent red and a reactive pastel red. YUM!! It is a step in the right direction.

There are a lot of 96 reds that react to silver. Reactive red is nice, but reactive ivory is kind of the holy grail...

What a bummer, thought I was giving good news that Uroboros has some new reactive colors, bummer that it is just a same-ole, same-ole thing. It is so rare that they come up with something new. Guess I will loose the excitement and save it for the next time they have something new

I don't know who to call or email... I'm guessing the Gaffer Girls would be a good starting point at

I agree - we want a reactive 96 coe Ivory!!

Some of the pale cream (latte & duck egg white from memory) Gaffer glasses are slightly reactive - just not the ivory so much.

I've mentioned it to the boys before but it seemed their mindset was really geared towards the furnace workers rather than lampworkers & a reactive ivory didn't seem to be a huge priority.

That said I think that the latest Gaffer releases were inspired by the cry of lampworkers for a z99 replacement - so maybe they are a little more open to suggestion now

Perhaps we should make a list of what sort of reactive characteristics we'd like to see in an Ivory....whether it just reacts with silver or if it also reacts & curdles when cooked alone etc.


This was silver foil on a latte base - not the reaction we get from 104 coe Ivory, but not completely without merit either.

One of my favorite cane ivories (yes, yes I know - "OMG! Leslie actually works with CANES!!!" LOL) was from Bullseye - right now I'm having trouble thinking (rattling around in a car like the inside of a maraca twice in two weeks will do that to a girl :/) but I think that it was Antique White. It was! It was! I love that color!

Bullseye French Vanilla is reactive with silver and I'm thinking, with the silver content added, it might be OK to use with 96, a lot of which is closer to 92-95.
