I just took these out of the kiln and I am thrilled with this glass. It is Gaffer Chalcedony G109 and reacts in a similar way to R108, but is much easier to work and the colors seem to pop with not a lot of effort. These are both all Chalcedony, the flat tab was pressed with a brass tool and the tube was marvered on a graphite torch marver which was fairly hot since it was warm in the garaqe last night. I really like the broken surface pattern on the tab bead.
Gaffer glass is in my neighborhood and they are so helpful and friendly.
