HARMONIC OSCILLATION

TRIP TIME FLUX

TURNED ON ITS HEAD

We stand on the precipice of an interesting time, in the doorway between the past and the future. The cycle of life seems to come around again, but by using what we have learned in the past, this time we look forward with a fresh perspective, and with a completely new level of consciousness. An exhilarating mix of emotions and reactions flow over us and we look forward to the energizing and positive experiences – and colours – that lie in store for us this season.

PRECIOSA Czech Crystal Experts

Preciosa, officially incorporated in 1948, is a leading international producer of cut crystal, specializing mainly in the production of quality machine-cut stones, beads and other fashion jewellery components in a broad variety of shapes, colours and sizes.

The company’s heritage, though, dates back over six centuries, when glassmaking first established and began to flourish in northern Bohemia. Today, staying true to its roots, Preciosa® GENUINE CZECH CRYSTAL™ is still 100% manufactured in the Czech Republic. While its headquarters remain in Jablonec nad Nisou, a city just north of the capital Prague, in the midst of the country’s glassmaking region, Preciosa serves its international base of customers through seven offices worldwide.

It is, however, the combination of hundred year-old glassmaking tradition and skills, modern flexibility, dedication to research and innovation, and a strong technical capacity which give rise to Preciosa® GENUINE CZECH CRYSTAL™: a top quality product of unequalled value on the marketplace.

One of the most resistant stones in the marketplace, Preciosa® GENUINE CZECH CRYSTAL™ guarantees the stability of its shapes, colour and sparkling brilliance of its entire range of products and colour palette. Preciosa Genuine Czech Crystal is made with High-Pure Crystal technologies, guaranteeing you the finest, clearest and most perfect crystal product every time.

PRECIOSA® AND PANTONE® Fashion Accessory Trend Forecasting for the New Millennium

PANTONE The World’s Colour Standard

Pantone revolutionized the graphic arts industry with the launch of the colourful PANTONE MATCHING SYSTEM over half a century ago, thus enabling designers and printers to faithfully articulate and accurately reproduce colours. Each colour in the system is identified with a unique number for precise specification. Pantone, a subsidiary of X-Rite, Inc., quickly became the standard in the printing and graphic arts industries. As the company moved into more lifestyle-oriented industries, the concept of a numbering system associated with corresponding colour names became even more important in communicating the exactness of a colour.

Today, Pantone is synonymous with the vocabulary of colour in all aspects of the visual world, providing products, technologies and services for the colourful exploration and expression of creativity and is equally prominent in the consumer realm. The company collaborates with other corporations on colour consistency, directs designers on colours and trends, and licenses paint and designer-inspired products for consumers around the world in the area of interior and exterior design, home products, fashion apparel, and now jewellery and fashion accessories.

In the area of jewellery and fashion accessories Pantone has been collaborating with Preciosa since 2010.

Pantone has provided a colour reference for each stone colour, when possible, which represents the closest available PANTONE TEXTILE Colour System® Colour under daylight lighting (D6500°K). The colours shown are simulations and may not match PANTONE-identified colour standards. Refer to PANTONE Publications for accurate PANTONE Colour standards. PANTONE® and other Pantone trademarks are the property of Pantone LLC. Portions © Pantone LLC, 2010. Produced under License Agreement No. 1211R between Preciosa, a. s. and Pantone LLC.

Preciosa is also an ecologically responsible global company dedicated to sustainable development. Preciosa’s crystal components are certified according to the European Standard EN 71 – Safety of Toys – Volume 3 Issue 1996/A1, Year 2001 and the American norm ASTM F 963-07 and are compliant with the International Standard OEKO-TEX 100.

S ince 2010 PRECIOSA and PANTONE have worked together to bring you the latest in fashion accessory trend forecasting, combining the season’s textile colour predictions with matching Preciosa® GENUINE CZECH CRYSTAL™ colours. Easy

to use, the semi-annual Apparel & Fashion Colour Trend tool provides not just information about the upcoming season, but also creative inspiration for fashion designers, manufacturers, decision-makers and industry leaders, and even the at-home hobby enthusiast.

So, for production professionals and artisans of beauty alike, we hope that our cooperation with Pantone is as inspiring as it is practical!
