Adapted from Tatton-Brown and Andrews 1991: 2 -- Chapter 2 -- Figure 2-1 Scanning electron micrograph of Pella sample 188, a turquoise opaque bead. Dark grey areas are weathered glass which form along microscopic cracks in the glass. White grains are the opacifying compound calcium antimonate. The scale bar represe

Streaks of less well opacified glass due to incomplete mixing or formation of the opacifier can be seen. Sample size is ~ 2.5 mm across.
