Mini Glass Gems 12 mm, French Mustard, 200 g
French Mustard Optic Drops for warm yellow colour fields and autumn designs
French Mustard contains round 12 mm Mini Glass Gems, also known as Optic Drops, in bright yellow, mustard, honey and ochre shades. This warm colour mix is ideal for suns, flower centres, autumn leaves, bee and fruit motifs, and other mosaic projects where you want lively yellow tones with earthy warmth. Some pieces have an iridescent finish that shifts subtly with the light and viewing angle.
The flat backs make the pieces easy to glue, while their round, domed tops add shine and dimension to mosaic designs. The Optic Drops can be used on their own or combined with glass mosaic tiles, mirror mosaic and other speciality-shaped mosaic pieces.

What is French Mustard suitable for?
French Mustard is particularly suitable for suns, sunflowers, flower centres, bees, fruit, autumn leaves and warm-toned abstract patterns. The gems can be used to decorate plant pots, lanterns, mirrors, trays, ornaments, wall decorations and garden features.
The 200 g pack is suitable for medium-sized mosaic projects, larger motifs and designs where yellow and mustard shades are used for colour fields, borders or abundant warm details.
Expert tip
Combine French Mustard with brown, terracotta or forest green for a warm, nature-inspired palette. Deep blue, violet or turquoise creates a bold, fresh contrast with the yellow shades.
