AB Finish
The AB effect, named for aurora borealis (the northern lights), is a term for crystal stones that have a highly iridescent surface. Created by in 1955 in collaboration with Christian Dior, the effect is achieved by vapor blasting the facets of the lower part of the crystals with an invisible, micro-thin metal sheet.
Shimmer Finish
Inspired by the classic AB effect, the shimmer effect radiates three shades of color for more dazzling light refraction and movement. This soft, glamorous effect speaks to our increasing desire for heightened sensory experiences by merging futuristic shimmer with bold crystal colors in boundary-breaking hues.
Special Finishes
Special finishes with the + designation include unique, third-party coatings.
