CIM color testing: Spooky

The first glass I am going to review is Spook,  it is a beautiful opal white.  It is more opaque than Cirrus and a little more transparent than Marshmallow.  It did not shock or bubble and melted like butter.  This glass was intended to be an opal amber but came out white.  It did not have much of a reaction to Effertre Turquoise or CIM Cranberry.  I paired it with a reduction silver glass blend and it did fume to a lovely amber shade. 
As you can see from this comparison picture Spooky is very simmilar to Marshmallow but slightly more translucent.  Marble became opaque with striations of translucency, its very pretty.
















This is the Spooky with Khaos reduced and encased, Spooky fumed to a beautiful gold, as you can see Frozen did not fume at all.
















The rubino frit did react it formed black lines
You can faintly see that the Effetre Light Turquoise di faintly react with the Spooky,  this is a better picture of how the Spooky fumed when paired with silver glass.  It also looks amazing when used to encase a transparent.  Spooky also etches well.
