To our valued customers,

We want to be transparent with you about a pricing adjustment now in effect on our silver-striking colors and all formulas that contain germanium.

Over the past year, the cost of key raw materials—most notably silver compounds and germanium—has increased significantly due to global market conditions. These materials are essential to the performance and consistency of many of our most popular colors. The escalation in cost has reached a point where we can no longer sustainably produce these colors without adjusting prices to reflect current market realities.

Effective immediately, prices on silver-based striking colors and germanium-containing formulas have been adjusted. These changes are based directly on increased raw material costs and are necessary for us to continue offering these colors at the quality standards you expect.

We have worked hard to absorb rising costs for as long as possible, and this decision was not made lightly. Our goal remains to provide the highest-quality colored borosilicate while ensuring long-term availability, consistency, and sustainability.

We sincerely appreciate your understanding and continued support. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Thank you,
Northstar Glassworks
