Green and magenta crinklized coating on thin clear glass with a strong two tone flip.
This Crinklized Green/Magenta coating pairs two opposite tones on a thin clear base. Light passing through reveals green from one viewpoint and magenta from another, and the crinkled surface scatters both into fine bright glints.
Turn the piece and the dichroic flips between green and magenta, a strong contrast made busier by the crinkle texture that fragments the shift across the surface.
Test a small piece first, as the final look depends on your kiln and setup.

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.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is CBS Dichroic glass?
Dichroic glass has ancient roots, including the Roman Lycurgus Cup. Modern dichroic glass was advanced through NASA era vacuum deposition work, where ultra thin metal coatings were applied to transparent surfaces for optical protection. Today, dichroic glass uses thin metal oxide layers on the glass surface to create a metallic color that shifts with light and viewing angle. CBS Dichroic glass applies this coating over a base glass, and the coating is on one side only.
What COE is this glass?
This is COE96.
What base glass is it on?
It is on a Thin Clear base.
What sizes are available?
Available sizes: 2"x4", 4"x4", Quarter Sheet, Full Sheet.
Should I test before firing?
Yes. Dichroic results vary by kiln and setup, so test a small piece first when the final look matters.
Can I cap dichroic glass with clear glass?
Many artists cap dichroic glass with clear, and capping can change the final look. Test first to confirm the result you want.
