Adrian,
Thanks for adding to this thread. If I could narrow down to one favorite category (which I can't) glass imitating realgar would be at the top of the list. I like all the different variations and will add that Eldreds last auction had a very similar example to yours that was pale yellow and red, sorry I don't have the lot number handy.
Steven,
Are examples with a little green and brown mixed in with the yellows and reds considered imitating jasper?

Cheers,
Rube
