Messy Tester's Feedback

  • Why is Tamarind OUT OF STOCK?
Our biggest color request right now is for opaque brown, in particular a chocolate brown.  We melted Tamarind numerous times and the formula has resulted most often in an un spectacular grey which you can see on our Tamarind Uniques page.
 
This has caused undue stress on our team as we have spent excessive time and energy on reproducing Tamarind consistently instead of producing new Messy Colors.  
 
We decided to address this situation by calling Tamarind a “Limited Run” and re directing our efforts to test melt opaque browns that we can re melt consistently. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused our artists.
  • Tamarind is unique to the 104 lampworking color palette.
"Another super winner color that has been void yet needed in our 104 COE color pallete. Very interesting brown that is a true raw umber hue, void of all red undertones! Under encasement, it becomes a VERY light raw umber shade.  In solid form, it serves up a deep dark tree bark hue." – Starleen Colon
  • Tamarind is a striking color.

“Tamarind is an opaque caramel color with a slight tendency to strike at first. However, this color evens out and gets dense as it's worked, especially when other colors are layered on top of it. The color is so much like candy!” Read more at Kandice’s color blog.

"Tamarind is yet another color that just hasn’t been available to the lampworking community and the color palette used by beadmakers. The rich mocha brown color is different from anything produced by Messy Color and widens the available palette, providing beadmakers more earth tones to use in their work."
