Cranberry Harvest Frit Blend, 2 oz, 96 COE

Step into the richness of late autumn with Cranberry Harvest Frit Blend, a 96 COE signature in-house artisan mix inspired by ripe cranberries, warm harvest leaves, weathered wood, golden fields, and the season's deep, earthy colors.

At first glance, the blend is filled with cranberry red, berry pink, warm brown, olive green, creamy ivory, and golden accents. As the glass melts, those colors begin to soften and interact, creating a warm, layered palette with plenty of contrast. Deep berry tones remain the focal point, while chestnut, cream, olive, and gold keep the blend grounded and distinctly autumnal, not overly bright or holiday-themed.

Designed for 96 COE glass systems, Cranberry Harvest performs beautifully for lampworking, fusing, glass blowing, and surface decoration techniques. The blend develops differently depending on how it is worked. Mosaic applications preserve the individual color fragments, creating scattered cranberry, gold, cream, and earthy accents. Swirl techniques produce flowing ribbons of berry red, warm brown, olive, and ivory, while encasing can add depth and soften the transitions between colors.

One of Cranberry Harvest’s strengths is its balance. The richer berry tones bring color and contrast, while the warmer neutrals and greens keep the finished glass from becoming too pink, too red, or too Christmas-like. Different base glass colors can shift the balance further, allowing the same blend to feel brighter, warmer, softer, or more earthy depending on how it is used.

Inspired By

Cranberry Harvest was inspired by the colors of ripe berries, late-season leaves, warm wood, and autumn's golden tones. Rich cranberry and berry shades bring depth and contrast, while olive green, creamy ivory, warm brown, and soft gold create an earthy harvest foundation. The result is a cozy seasonal palette that feels colorful and warm without becoming too traditional or predictable.

Handcrafted in small batches in the USA by glass artist Stephanie A. White, each jar offers consistent quality while allowing for the natural variation expected of artisan-blended materials. Colors may vary slightly due to lighting, screen settings, application technique, base glass selection, and individual firing conditions.
