"Spacers: the right two are etched. The darker spacers had more glass added right at the end and not struck so much – it goes lighter, bluer and more opaque the more it is worked." Read more at Heather's blog. – Heather Kelly

“French Grey is a lighter version of Nimbus and exhibits a lovely medium blue-grey color. Similar to Nimbus, the glass has a quartz-like finish when worked hot. The glass could be classified as a alabaster of sorts, not quite completely opaque. Under an encasement of transparent clear, the glass had a mottled appearance.”

“I absolutely adore the way that white stringer [Effetre white] looks feathered at the edges over French Grey.” Read more at Kitzbitz Art Glass’ blog.
