Wild Orchids Frit Blend, 2 oz, 96 COE
Surround your glass art with the elegant beauty of our Wild Orchid frit blend, inspired by the rich colors of blooming orchids growing beneath a woodland canopy. Handcrafted in small batches, this custom blend combines orchid pinks, soft lavender, creamy white, and violet purple to create glass art with beautiful movement, depth, and natural floral character.
Ideal for Lampworking, Glass Fusing, and Glass Blowing
The Wild Orchid Frit Blend was designed for artists who love romantic floral palettes with rich, organic color variation. Whether you're creating lampwork beads, fused glass artwork, blown glass vessels, or decorative accents, this blend produces graceful reactions with flowing orchid pinks, soft lavenders, creamy whites, and unexpected touches of violet.
Designed for 96 COE glass, Wild Orchid can also be safely incorporated into 104 COE projects at approximately 5–10% of the total glass, giving artists even more creative flexibility.
Creative Possibilities
Wild Orchid shines in a variety of glassworking techniques. Roll molten glass through the frit for soft floral textures, layer it beneath clear glass for added depth, or combine it with other colors to create entirely new effects.
This blend produces beautiful results in both mosaic and swirl styles, creating everything from delicate watercolor-like ribbons to bold floral reactions depending on the base glass and working technique. The rich orchid palette creates unique marbling and soft transitions among pink, lavender, white, and purple, ensuring every bead or glass creation is truly one of a kind.

Handmade Quality
Each jar of Wild Orchid Frit Blend is carefully handcrafted by Stephanie A. White of SWCreations in the USA using premium compatible glass. Every batch is individually blended to preserve the elegant floral palette and natural movement that make Wild Orchid so distinctive.
Because every monitor displays color differently and glass responds uniquely to heat, lighting, and individual torch or kiln techniques, finished results will vary slightly, part of the beauty of working with handcrafted glass frit.
Create elegant lampwork beads, fused-glass art, and blown-glass pieces inspired by the timeless beauty of wild orchids. Whether you're designing jewelry components, sculptural glass, or statement artwork, Wild Orchid brings graceful floral color and beautiful organic movement to every creation.
🦋 What Makes Each Piece Unique
Every SWCreations piece is handcrafted in the USA by jewelry designer Stephanie A. White. Because artisan lampwork beads and many natural materials are individually handcrafted or naturally formed, slight variations in color, pattern, and shape are part of what makes every piece unique.
