What is Shimmer AB?
The Shimmer AB effect is a more delicate version of the traditional Aurora Borealis coating. It adds a translucent, shifting glow that reflects light without overpowering the crystal's natural color. Inspired by Swarovski's Shimmer finish, this AB coating delivers high-impact sparkle with refined elegance.
