Want to buy some "gold dust"

[TheBracha]

I am an artist working in fused glass and I am looking to test the use of gold dust in-between layers of fused glass that will be melted in a kiln at 1400 degrees.

I am expecting that it will remain shiny and give a unique look to the finished pieces.

I don't know where to find the gold dust, I am in California not near any Alaska mining facilities where I assume it would be quite easy to buy a small quantity to test.

If you could point me to someone who could sell this I would be most appreciative.

I don't know how you are going to try and do this yet, all i can do is supply the powder, but it got me to wondering if their is another way to apply it besides powder form.


Guys ?????

Gold melts at 1850 degree's F., you might try the gold ceramic paints or get into cranberry glass which is made by adding gold(III) oxide

How fine do you want the dust? I can give you some 24K dust in the form of gold precipitate, nice yellow crystals - ultra fine. Or some electrowon dust. We also get alot of gold dust from the mountains... Either way
