I just got an order in the mail yesterday. There are three rods of Khaos, I think it's a new color.

Hades is CiM.
I think there was officially an Olympia Rain 2. I have rods that I got from other people that are labeled that.

I don't have pics, but I do know that these are some of the first colors they came out with. I'm still sitting on a tiny stash of shorts I got on eBay about 2 1/2 years ago of those colors.

They just released a bunch of odds a week or two ago. Some are still up on their site.
Khaos is their newest version of Terra, I think.
The odds I know about are T-107, K-113, and H-117.

Silver Stone is one of their early colors, looks like silvered ivory but denser. I'd KILL for more of this color!

Old Color Names
Also "Emerald City, Calcedony, Sugar Plum, and Kentucky Bourbon". 
I found a box of old stuff when cleaning the shop the other day. The newer colors are way better.  I am particularly interested in hearing how you like the new "Khaos". It is my favorite so far.

I can't wait to see what everyone has done with Khaos. When will it be available for purchase?

I played with mine today and was blown away by the range of color. The effects were easy to achieve too. I LOVE Terra, but I think Khaos is my favorite so far also. Kudos on another fantastic glass!!

josielv asked:

Can do. These are only of frit, and sometimes frit does not behave as the solid glass, but here are the frits from all of the Double Helix colors I have (which I also have in the list in the first post in black).
 
When I get this massive frit project done, these are the colors of Double Helix's that will be included (except for new releases). IF Jed would like to part with about an inch of the colors I don't have, listed in Magenta, I would be pleased to include them. For more info on the project or to see other sample pages, just follow the link in my signature. My bead count on this project is now 6800 frit beads done. I know that the early colors were not released as frits, and that's why I'm giving him the option of whether or not he would like it included, but it's nice to be able to give someone an image of a color when they ask for it.
I do thank you all for the help on making this list more complete.
Huge Holiday Hugs!!!

Yes, they are older colors. I was just checking because someone (in the bathroom) mentioned Northern Lights was from DH and the only Northern Lights I had heard of was Caliente. Since I hadn't heard of DH having Northern Lights, I was curious to know what other colors they had that I was unaware of.
