Clear vs ClearAB what is the difference #crystals #blog

I am always being asked what the difference is between a clear crystal and a clear ab crystal. AB is a coating that can be put on any crystal. It is put on one side of the crystal, so depending on the shape of the crystal it can look slightly different. Pictured below are 2 necklaces the top is made with Clear AB crystals and the bottom is made with Clear Crystals. I have also put some loose crystals next to the necklace. With the bicones and the round crystals you can see depending on which way they face  it shows differently, but on the heart crystal because the coating is on the back side you can see the full effect of the ab coating. I hope this clears this up. Thanks for reading... Rose ladybead.com
