A first layer of transparent glass is melted in the flame, then the Golden leaf is delicately placed in the center of the pearl, which is then decorated with colored glass.

Glass dichroic is produced using a process of heating glass in a vacuum chamber. Once the vacuum is created, metals are sprayed onto the glass. The color varies depending on the metal used.

There color reflected by the glass on its surface may be completely different from that reflected when light passes through the glass.

There dichroic color applied to black glass will reflect all light giving a metallic color. The same dichroic color applied to clear glass will absorb the light and reflect it back in a rainbow. A silver foil orgold placed inside a pearl will accentuate its color or shine.
