About Experimental Silver #6

Experimental Silver #6 was developed to offer a more affordable silver option as silver prices climbed.

This reactive silver borosilicate glass delivers an extra-rich amber-to-purple strike, ranging from pale yellows and warm ambers to deep, vibrant purples depending on flame atmosphere and kiln time.

Originally released as part of the Experimental Silver series, #6 became a standout favorite and is now part of the permanent lineup.

At $39/lb, it offers a dramatic silver strike at a fraction of the cost of many comparable colors.

Looking for the same striking reaction on a cobalt blue base? Exp. Blue Silver #6 is now available.

Working Tip: Get this color white hot to erase the striking history. A variety of effects are achievable depending on how long you flame/kiln strike. For the strongest purples, work in a hot neutral to slightly oxidizing flame. Reduction will affect the strike and shift the final result.
