DICHROIC GLASS JEWELRY
By Jean Santoro Sobieck
Dichroic is a high-tech optical coating that is applied to glass.
The word "dichroic" (pronounced die-crow-ic) means two colors, which refer to
transmitted color and reflected color. It is what gives each piece its reflective
metallic finish. This same effect is seen in nature in peacock feathers, butterfly
wings, and opals. Each piece is individually handcrafted and one of a kind.
