An opaque army green, very close in hue to Olive but with blue overtones.




Customers complained that Olive and Commando were too close in hue, so per their suggestions we tweaked the most recent batch of Commando to be more grey-ish. The new batch will turn over in Frantz's inventory in October 2009.

Messy Tester's Feedback

  • Commando is an opaque olive bluish green.
"You'll see it's [Commando] pretty close but more 'army green' than the Olive-which seems to have more of a yellow tone, this more gray. As seen in the pic it reacts great with silver leaf.  The one on the right is total chrome-like, heavy reduced with silver leaf, hard to get a pic of. One in the middle is reduced just a flash after leaf was melted on." – Elasia
  • Commando is unique to the 104 lampworking color palette.
"Another unique color offered up from CiM for our glass 'crayola box'." – Starleen Colon

"Olive and Commando are two greens that have been missing from the lampworking palette and in my opinion are great additions. There have never been greens like these produced in Italy that have been available to beadmakers." Read more at the Frantz Art Glass blog.
