Author Donald Ahrens in his text Meteorology Today describes a RAINBOW as “one of the most spectacular light shows observed on earth.” Displaying their beautiful colors after a rainstorm, rainbows are Mother Nature’s way of expressing calm & serenity. To us, they bring about good feelings of peace, tranquility, & relaxation.

          The RAINBOW's magical & mystical powers along with their vibrant color experience can be harnessed & intensified through the wonders of today’s precision technology.

 

          Today’s crystal is made out of full-leaded glass making it optically pure.   Faceted (cut in specific pattern) with tremendous precision using the latest technology in computer-generated cutting, Crystal Prisms display 100’s of mini rainbows when exposed to Sunlight!

 

          · Each of our Crystals is a testament of superior quality & craftsmanship

 

          · Each Crystal & Prism in our gallery is unique in & of itself by its shape, style, & how it is faceted.

 

          · Instead of Rain as Mother Nature uses, each & every piece in our collection will “shower” the air around you with beautiful, vibrant, & colorful RAINBOW's!

 

 

How a PRISM makes a RAINBOW

 

          As White light like Sunshine enters a transparent material such as glass, crystal, or water, it is separated & refracted (bent) according to its color then refracted again & amplified out the other side.  Every color has a certain wavelength & it’s own unique refraction angle!

 

The end result is a Rainbow Wavelength Spectrum.  The Predominant colors are Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, & Violet, but there are so many shades in between!
