Nymph Ltd Run (511494)<br />A green misty opal- same hue as Persian Green.

A green misty opal- same hue as Persian Green.


"Two gorgeous greens from CiM in a fresh minty shade. Persian Green is a translucent opal, and Nymph is its misty opal counterpart. I did find that Nymph was more saturated in colour than most of their misty opals, and on a quick glance these do look very similar. However,  it doesn't show so well in the photograph but Nymph is definitely more translucent. If you loved colours like Sea Foam, Kryptonite and Spearmint then you are going to love these!!" – Trudi Doherty

"Clear core, Canyon de Chelly case, Nymph torso- like butter, no reducing or scumming. Dreamy."
– Laurie Nessel
"CiM are really outdoing themselves with their misty and milky opals at the moment! They are all gorgeous! Sea Glass is a very pale and delicate misty opal - it definitely lives up to its name. Nymph is another misty opal which is a gorgeous shade of light turquoise and Ice Mint is a more translucent opal which again, is a yummy shade of turquoise. I wouldn't normally photograph beads in direct sunlight but the way the light goes through these needs to be seen to be believed, it's really magical. I've also included Sea Foam which is distinctly greener and much more of an opaque opal."

"Nymph edged with Goddess and pressed for petals. I love Nymph and the other colors that are similar. Translucency allows the light to shine through, and yet can define the color well. I'm going to be using these a lot. I love how Nymph looks when pressed with Goddess. They just blend together into yumminess. And I will be testing a lot of these colors over and under other CiM colors which increases my palette by a lot!"

"All of these colors melted beautifully! I had no shocking and no pitting or boiling. As you can see from the photos another happy surprise was almost zero reaction with fine silver .999. In my experience, turquoise colors can have organic reactions to silver but these colors remained true. Some of these colors are colors that have the same base batch but are split into two and one will remain a misty opal [more transparent] and one will remain a milky opal [more opaque]. Witches' Brew & Lovebirds, Avonlea & Shamrock, and Sea Glass & Lady Of The Lake are all examples of these pairings. Basically all of these colors have a place in my heart and the 104 line. The subtle changes in the transparency and hues is like having an unlimited paint palette in glass! These colors also lend a range of saturations depending on whether they are layered with bases of clear or white. All of the photos were straight color to show true outcomes. The only exception is Avonlea which I felt might not show the black line art so that is over white."

"Nymph is another slightly blued green that retains its translucency beautifully."
– Gloria Sevey
"They are all such beautiful colours. I have to say I really love the misty opals the best. They have a lovely glimmer inside. So my preference would be Sea Glass, Nymph and Ice Mint but how is one to decide? They are all so beautiful!"

"This is such an incredible colour that is a misty opal sea green [think Paradise beach and sea colours]. The softness and subtle inner glow would make this perfect to be used solo or would enhance any beach themed bead designs."
– Juliette Mullett
"The bird and spacer on the right is Nymph. I wanted to test this against a glass I have called Spearmint. The bird/spacer on the left is Spearmint. Nymph is very similar in color but has the added bonus of staying translucent after annealing! Winner!"
– Lori Peterson
"Be still my beating heart! In this new batch of colours, there are some beautiful fresh minty greens. They kinda go in pairs as CiM has made some misty opals and coordinating opals that stay translucent. I've pictured them all together so that you can easily compare them!"
