Original Message:   Re: Question about techniques to "age" glass beads
When hot - baking soda will give the glass a pitted boiled look as will salt. Research the term "scavo". This is a powder mixture that glass blowers use to make glass look like it is old and has been excavated. Hydrofluoric acid will dissolve glass.
