<p>[QUOTE="Ownedbybear, post: 144014, member: 29"]It's also called neodymium glass, because that's the element that is added to the glass recipe. It changes colour according to the wavelength of the ambient light. So, in daylight it's that lilac sort of colour and under fluorescent light it's blue. There's other types of colour changing glass, but this is the most common.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
