Customer Experience:

Ginger is, in general, a non reactive color.

“It is a great substitute for ivory when you do not want a reaction with other glass.” ~ Janice Laster

“Dark colors seem to "sink" into Ginger, leaving very soft, ill-defined edges. If you like that it is great; on the other hand, if you want defined edges on dots and lines, it can be a problem.” ~ Tim Gottleber

Ginger is an excellent neutral base color.

“This color often looks like Butter Pecan. It’s a little bit warmer in tone and makes a great base color.” ~ Gail Witt

“I loved working with the Ginger and using it with reactive frits. It makes the most beautiful organic beads. It etches, presses well, marvers well, isn’t shocky, melts smooth, and is lovely to work with.” ~ Janice Laster

“WOW!!!! What a versatile color! I absolutely love working with Ginger. It is such a wonderful base or surface decoration. It ranges from a flesh tone to beige. It looks great with everything!” ~ Stephanie Risberg

Some Messy Color testers described Ginger as “streaky,” but only if overworked.

“It is a little streaky but the color is so light it doesn’t show up too much.” ~ Gail Witt

“It is sometimes streaky. But that adds to its charm. Some beads had no streaks whatsoever while others had lots of streaks. I thought it might be the graphite marver, but only ½ the beads that I marvered had streaks.” ~ Stephanie Risberg

Ginger does not change when reduced.

“I did not notice any change in appearance (when reduced).” ~ Stephanie Risberg

“There was no reaction with either reduction or oxidation.” ~ Tim Gottleber
