The color of mistglass ranges from pastel blue through white. The material itself has a very translucent, almost hazy sheen to it, making it look almost ghostly when made properly. Mistglass can be cast or carved into almost any shape and is quite malleable to work with.

Making mistglass involves a talented smith purifying a mixture of glass and anlora-avtoma in several stages, with each subsequent refinement reducing the blueness from the metal. Each refinement cycle requires slow and painfully exact care, so mist glass becomes much more expensive in its whitest forms. Extreme refining can result in a substance which is nearly transparent. Mistglass has enough metallic properties to justify calling it a metal alloy, although this becomes less as the substance is more refined.

Mistglass is moderately strong and extremely light weight, though somewhat brittle, making it unsuitable for armor and weapons. However, unpolished mistglass is often used as a covering for a hilt or handle of a fancy weapon, due to its high-friction, almost rubbery texture when unpolished. Its main use is jewelry or other decorative items such as sculptures or cases, and is an excellent material for setting gems.
