What is Shimmer AB?

Shimmer AB is a lighter and more refined alternative to traditional Aurora Borealis finishes. Designed to subtly amplify the brilliance of the base color, it offers a soft rainbow glow that changes gently with the light—adding sophistication and depth without masking the crystal’s original tone.
