An opaque yellow.


"Canary is much nicer with the reducing silver glass than it is with TerraNova2 Frit. The main difference here is that while I was able to get some decent colour out of the TerraNova2 frit on top of Submarine, on top of Canary it seems to have turned black/grey in places and has not struck very much at all."

"The glass from CiM is wonderfully consistent, and the yellows [including Canary], oranges and red are much more 'what you see is what you get' than the same colour ranges from the Italian manufacturers." Read more at DragonJools blog.

"Canary [outer circle] is a nice, bright yellow that is slightly translucent. It is very similar in color to Effetre's Acid Yellow [inner circle], but not as opaque."
