Zeus

This glass appears crystal clear in the rod, but changes dramatically when reduced, then struck. Zeus turns amber by itself and over light colours. Over black it can be struck to a range from royal blue to turquoise to green. Over reds and oranges, it can turn purple! Can also be reduced further to amber brown opaques. Encases well, retains reaction under clear. Remember, Zeus likes to be ‘activated’ by a light reduction before it will strike, essentially ‘striking’ colour in the reduction haze. There are approximately 10 rods per pound.
