CONCEPT
The new jewelry making material that makes you look and feel like a flower in full bloom.
infiora™ is a brand-new jewelry glass material like no other. It has brilliance and clarity comparable to a diamond, and a degree of “fire” that even diamonds cannot hope to emit. Its name draws from the Italian words for full bloom (“in fiore”) and now (“ora”).
FEATURES
What Makes infiora™ Better than Other Materials?
Features 01
As Clear and Colorless As a Diamond
infiora™ offers clarity and colorlessness equivalent to an F-color diamond.*1
*1 Diamonds are ranked for color based on a 23-grade scale administered by the Gemological Institute of America. The scale ranges from D to Z, within which D through F is the “colorless” band.

Features 02
High Refractive Index
Our studies show that infiora™ has the world’s highest refractive index among commercial-grade clear and colorless glasses. When brilliant-cut, infiora™ has brilliance comparable to a diamond.

Features 03
Outstanding Light Dispersion
Light reaching infiora™ is reflected multiple times inside, resulting in dispersion that creates a spectacular “fire” (the term given to the refraction of white light into seven distinct colors via the prism effect).

REASON
What Gives infiora™ Its Superior Brilliance?
Not only is infiora™ colorless, but it has far more diffusion and refraction than crystal glass, too. When brilliant-cut, it emits a beautiful seven-color fire.

○ Light Reflection
Due to its high refractive index, infiora™ reflects all light from its interior back to the top surface, resulting in greater brilliance. Crystal glass, meanwhile, leaves some light unreflected.

○ Light Dispersion
Highly dispersive infiora™ has a greater ability than crystal glass to disperse light into its component colors, resulting in greater fire.
