What is Shimmer AB?

Shimmer AB is Preciosa’s elegant take on the Aurora Borealis effect—offering a lighter, more ethereal finish that enhances the underlying color rather than masking it. On Blue Violet crystals, this soft overlay creates dreamy color shifts in the light, adding dimension and movement to your design.
