Athena Leah Luna Tutorial

Athena Leah Luna comes from my original Striking Glass Masterclass and brings reduction and striking together in one layered Double Helix study.

This tutorial works through the flame chemistry behind the bead as much as the actual construction. We’ll use reduction, striking, silver foil and transparent layers while paying attention to how atmosphere, heat and timing change the color developing in the glass.

Glass + Materials

• Double Helix Aurae or Aurae Light
• Double Helix Oracle Black
• Double Helix Zephyr
• Double Helix Luna or KBX970 test batch
• Clear stringer
• Silver foil

No Luna?

Double Helix KBX970 can be substituted for Luna. You can follow the tutorial exactly as taught using KBX970.

Helpful Prerequisite

Soleil Flame Chemistry is helpful before taking this tutorial.

It is not required, but understanding reduction, striking and flame atmosphere will make it much easier to understand what I am doing in the flame and why.

This is a prerecorded, self-paced tutorial. There is no set class time.

The 36-hour window applies only to purchasing the lesson. Once purchased, the tutorial is yours to work through on your own schedule.

You’ll also have the option to join the private Compendium study chat for questions, troubleshooting, kiln pulls and technique feedback with me through Thursday.
