Question How to Make Vivid Purple Glass Beads?

Question, so I do understand how to accomplish vivid pink. I am still learning this craft and it does seem to take a while to master.

Are there other vivid colors that can be accomplished? Is there a vivid purple that is bright like this pink? I can see elements of vivid purple in this bead.

Try dark amethyst over periwinkle. It's cheap, easy, reliable and looks awesome. Add some rubino if you're feeling bold.

The picture you posted appears to be made with Double Helix Clio. You use a base of orange ((CIM Clockeork orange works well. Encase with a thin layer of clear. Then add a thin layer of Clio. Reduce the Clio and encase in clear. If done properly you will get beautiful pinks.
