Cyan/Copper Fusion melts cyan and copper zones together with blurred edges across the coating, the cool and warm areas flowing into one another. Set on thin clear glass, the open transparent spaces lift backlight through the design so the blend reads bright rather than heavy.
The coated side shifts color with light and angle. The cyan cools and brightens while the copper warms, and as the glass turns the two swap dominance, the soft boundaries between them drifting as the shift crosses the surface.
Fire a small sample first, since results depend 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.
What makes the Cyan/Copper Fusion pattern distinct?
Cyan and copper coatings blend with soft, drifting boundaries instead of hard edges. Each cut pulls a different ratio of cool to warm coverage, so no two pieces from the sheet match.
Is this COE90?
This listing is COE90 on a thin clear base.
How should I cut Cyan/Copper Fusion glass?
Score on the back (non-coated) side to keep the dichroic intact. Use a thin oil-fed cutter and a light, even score on this thin clear base for cleaner breaks.
Will the cyan and copper zones stay distinct after firing?
At full fuse the hues hold but the boundary softens further as the glass moves. Tack and contour fuse schedules preserve more of the original edge definition. Test the schedule you plan to run before committing the full sheet.
Should I cap this with clear glass?
Capping protects the coating and deepens the color, but it also tones down the metallic flash off the cyan and copper zones. Run a capped and uncapped sample side by side and pick the look that fits the piece.
What sizes are available?
2"x4", 4"x4", quarter sheet, and full sheet.
