Polychromatic Crystal Coating
Volcano features a polychromatic crystal coating designed to shift, glow, and change color with movement and light. These finishes contain multiple tones within a single crystal, creating depth and dimension that standard rhinestone colors can’t achieve. Each crystal reflects light differently depending on viewing angle, surface color, and lighting—making every design feel dynamic and one-of-a-kind.
What Makes Polychromatic Crystals Unique
- Displays multiple colors at once for a dimensional, color-changing effect
- Shifts tones as the crystal moves and reacts dramatically to the lighting
- Exclusive finishes developed by Preciosa®
- Natural shade variation is expected and intentional—no two stones are meant to look the same
Heliotrope Shade Variations (MHEL vs. M2HEL)
Within each polychromatic color, distinct shade expressions are created during the coating process. These are intentional variations, not defects. Our current inventory has been sorted, and we have chosen the most popular shade for our customers.
