Oceanside Crystal Opalescent (style OGT209SF) is System 96 tested-compatible 96 COE fusible sheet glass, a soft white opalescent with a faint warm cast.
Appearance
Crystal is a pale, milky white with a barely-there warm cream cast in places. It is opalescent, so it glows softly rather than turning fully opaque, holding a gentle translucence that lets a little light through while still reading white. The surface is smooth and clean with only slight cloud-like shading.
Working notes
This white opal works as a soft, light-diffusing background or as a solid color field. It is translucent enough to warm up over a lit surface but still covers a dark base as a pale layer. Both faces are smooth, so it fires either side up; a full fuse gives an even glossy sheet, while a tack fuse keeps layered pieces defined.
Reactions
This color is not on the System 96 reactive list, so it sits next to other colors without forming a reaction line. See the System 96 Reactive Color Chart for the colors that do react.
Format and sizes
Sold as 3mm smooth sheet glass. Choose your size from the options on this page.
Fusing and compatibility
Tested compatible with other System 96 glass, so it fuses cleanly with any 96 COE product in the System 96 family. When you combine it with glass from other makers, matching COE alone does not guarantee compatibility, so fire a small test tile first.
