The stunning glass features intoxicating effects through extravagant inlays and artistic colour combinations. Acrylic Couture is made up of the highest quality acrylic glass, and is made in Italy. It has been modified with special nanoparticles for the extremely efficient scattering and reflecting of light. It features ‘cross-linked’ polymers for higher resistance to scratching. The highlight for the senses is achieved through the tiny particles within the glass. In the presence of light and LED technology, this extraordinary material composition makes it possible to achieved intensely radiant effects and thereby create the perfect setting for shine and shimmer, light and shade, colour and shapes.
