I want some too!! I just saw two sets made with the stuff and I love it. Of course, I also love the czech shampoo glass too, but it has a funky coe.

Let me know if you find any, Tink, because I would love to get in on a buy.

Thank You!! I placed an order, and can't wait to see what this glass is like. I hope it melts nice and smooth like the czech shampoo that I've used.

Thank you, Suzanne!!

Default Translator for foreign language sites

There is a wonderful translator that will translate any foreign language site.

http://babel.altavista.com/translate.dyn

Just put in the link and tell it what language you want it to translate from and to. For instance I put in the above site and told it to translate from German to English. It misses some words but you can certainly get the gist. Try it, you will like it.

Hi Monique!

Can you maybe post some pictures of beads you've done with the samples? I'm having a hard time picturing what this pearly glass looks like. Just from the little pics on the ombos.net site, it looks really interesting!

If you overheat the glass it separates, the pearl sinks to the bottom and clear gets on top.
Changing of temperature on the surface will leave marks. If you marver or stamp the glas, after reintroducing to the flame, it will cook on the places where it touched and leave ugly traces on the bead.

This bead I only marvered slightly on a graphitepaddle and you can see the marks. The marks are rough.

I made some beads with the pearlglass for a webshop I made( http://www.sansiera.nl/shop/index.ph...&cPath=1_11_21 ). It is hard to get a descent photo of the glass, but the picures on the Ombos site are far better.
