Creative Glass Mixtures

I am a chemist with 45 years of experience in industrial research. I would like to comment on the recent discussion about Tyndall effect in art glass and other solutions. In reality, glass is just another liquid solution. Carder most certainly used this phenomenon in his creative use of glass mixtures to attain unique properties to his creations. There is a good discussion on various Tyndall effects in the following web site:
Wikipedia

I encourage those interested in understanding this effect to refer to the above site. It is a very good discussion.
