COE96 Dichroic Frit

CBS dichroic frit brings shifting, sparkling color to COE96 fused glass work. Sprinkle a pinch onto a pendant, a coaster, or a full panel and the surface comes alive, changing color as the light and viewing angle change. Most options come in 1 oz packs, and there are sample sets when you want to try several looks at once.

Choosing a base

Clear based frit lets light through, so the dichroic effect layers over whatever color sits beneath it. Black based frit gives the deepest saturation and the boldest contrast, a favorite for jewelry. The transparent color bases tint the sparkle itself, adding another layer of depth in light catchers and layered pieces.

Usage notes

Everything here is COE96 and should only be combined with other COE96 glass. Never mix COE90 and COE96 in one piece. Cap the frit with clear glass for a smooth, glossy finish, or tack fuse it uncapped for raised texture. Store leftovers dry and they keep indefinitely.
