Oceanside Emerald Green (style 2226-96) is System 96 tested-compatible 96 COE fusible frit, a bright green in crushed glass form.
Appearance
A vivid emerald green with the solid, opaque body of an opal, so the chips read as a full, even green. Fresh and grassy, closer to kelly green than a deep bottle green, with a soft sheen on the broken faces.
Working notes
Bright and solid over any background, light or dark. A full fuse melts the chips into a smooth green layer; a tack fuse keeps a granular raised texture.
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.
Using the frit
Fine grades give smooth shading and color blending; coarser grades give texture, accents, and body for casting molds.
Fusing and compatibility
Fires on the System 96 schedule with any 96 COE glass in the family. With glass from other makers, matching COE alone does not guarantee compatibility, so fire a small test tile first.
