What is Shimmer AB?
The Shimmer AB effect offers a modern take on traditional Aurora Borealis coatings—lighter, more breathable, and designed to allow the base crystal color to shine through with enhanced depth and brilliance. Inspired by Swarovski’s Shimmer finish, this effect delivers a dreamlike sparkle that shifts with movement and light.
