"The bead on the right [2 black dots] is the Unique - and it, for all intents and purposes - has come out white. Perhaps a little less brilliant white than white, maybe a little translucent - but not the milky Cirrus cloud effect I was expecting! . . . . It does occur to me that it is pretty stiff, for a white. So there may be some sculptural possiblities here." Read more at DragonJools blog. – Dwyn Tomlinson

"This color has some really nice reactions with the silver glasses from Double Helix.  You can see the wonderful color it fumes to."
