Boro Sample Test Paddles – TAG Archive

Original Trautman Art Glass (TAG) borosilicate color test paddles from the TAG archives, dating approximately 2012–2016.

These are worked glass samples made to showcase many different TAG colors from that era. Most are individually labeled with the color name and/or identifying information.

These are actual borosilicate glass samples — they can be melted down and used in your own work, kept as color references, collected, displayed, or used however you’d like.

There’s a huge variety of colors represented, including transparents, opaques, sparkles, striking colors, and more. Some may be older or discontinued TAG colors that are no longer readily available.

A cool piece of TAG history and usable glass at the same time.
