Dichroic Glass

Dichroic glass, an invention often attributed to NASA, refers to glasses with two or more colors. Unlike Murano glass, Dichroic glass in itself is not made of two or more colored glasses, instead, a thin film of metal is fused over the glass surface, which results in changing colors when light is reflected on it from different angles. As even the slightest movement causes a change in color, these glasses make great components for jewelry, especially as pendants. Dichroic glass pendants are highly popular and are available in a range of shapes including palm trees, crabs, dolphins, and much more. Regular shapes such as coin, diamond, briolette, and oval are also available.
