Default Show me your Nyx beads

I just got a couple of rods of DH Nyx but I'm struggling to find any tips or examples of beads using this glass. I would love to see some examples and some cooking tips before I get going.

thx,

This set is made with Medium Fossil and Nyx. I love the mirror shine reactions of the Nyx and the dark separation lines.

Those are sweeeeet, Judith! I have one rod of Nyx I got from a sample pack. I'm tempted to use it now. Did you just treat it as any other reduction glass?

Lara, oh my heavens, that bottom bead is spectacular. I won't even try to think how you did that long, close-together striped effect. Must have been a super twistie. The Nyx turned a beautiful color!!

Question

Very pretty Lara. Thanks for showing. Is that Nyx reduced on ivory, dark ivory? Does this glass only show blues. Do you know if it encases that color?
