Crinklized Green/Magenta Blue Fusion features a textured dichroic coating on thin black glass. The wrinkled surface creates a dynamic field where green and magenta blue shift and blend as the viewing angle changes. The thin black base enhances the depth and contrast of the color transitions.
This glass is suitable for jewelry, cabochons, and focal accents that benefit from strong color interplay in compact pieces. The two-tone coating and textured surface create a shimmering effect that varies with movement and lighting.

Working Notes
Firing Guidelines and Helpful Tips
Dichroic results vary by kiln, firing schedule, base glass, capping, layering, and coating orientation. These are guidelines, not guarantees. Follow the glass and coating manufacturer's guidance, and test a small piece first when the final look matters.
- Coating side orientation and clear capping can each change the final look, so test first when the result matters.
- Appearance may vary after firing, and the metallic color shift can read differently by viewing angle and lighting.
- Cut and handle the coated surface with care.
What is CBS Dichroic glass?
CBS Dichroic glass is a specialty art glass with a thin dichroic coating that creates shifting colors and reflective effects. It is widely used in kilnforming, fusing, and jewelry applications.
How does a fusion pattern behave in finished work?
A fusion pattern blends two coating colors across a single field. As the viewing angle shifts, one color leads and the other recedes, and the crinklized texture breaks the transition into a flickering blend rather than a hard line.
How do the green and magenta blue colors shift in different lighting?
The crinklized surface causes green and magenta blue tones to alternate and blend, with the dominant color changing as the piece is moved or as lighting conditions vary.
