Pearlescent foil
Semi-translucent shimmer rather than metal. A tone-on-tone whisper that only shows at an angle.
We run this finish across KURZ, Crown Roll Leaf, Great Western and CHENHUI. Which roll your job is stamped with depends on the stock, the smallest detail in the artwork and the run length, the exact product code is confirmed on your quote.
Best for
- Tone-on-tone on light stock
- Subtle shimmer behind type
Watch out for
- It will not read in a photograph or on screen. Only specify it if the piece will be held.
Premium vs value, honestly
We compare a stamped sample on your chosen stock. Adhesion, detail and reflection matter as much as colour, so two similar foils are not automatically interchangeable.
