Show me pictures of your colored glass recurves,If it's not to much of a pain in the rear.Trying to convince myself it would look okay.I may be wrong on this but I'm thinking It's more durable then clear.by the way I'm known to beat my bows up.
I would think if you are hard on your bows pretty would not be on top of your list. I like the brown and green glass. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v75/crookedstic/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-12/20161212_100146_zpsfruxu4nk.jpg)
I have brown glass on my Sasquatch Longbow limbs, and am having black glass on my Sasquatch Recurve limbs (still being built).
Here is a poor picture of my Longbow limb.

Love them both! Nothing Classier than a one piece with colored glass. Very Very nice!
Oh no, I just know someone is going to post pics of one of the mean green Kanati's. I am glad they don't come in 35# @ 28". Or I should say, my wallet is glad.

Ten ring string, green and yellow with dandelion puffs!
Cool color combo
I just knew that was coming. I planned ahead and used smooth on on my wallet. It won't open for a while.
Just call up Jason, by the time he gets her done your wallet will open back up! :biglaugh: :biglaugh: :biglaugh:
I could even drive over and shoot it first for you before he ships it!
Cool bow kleine! Love the color combo.
Besides green, what riser woods would go nice with green glass?
I like rosewood or cocabola with the green glass.
Shedua, maple, cocobola, bacote, anything brown would go well with green.

It's funny, I kinda get the feeling some folks look at colored glass like it's a "new thing"
Not recurves but!
