By a slight and scarcely perceptible change, the beautiful impression of fire and gold is transformed into one not undeserving the epithet foul and the colour of honour and joy reversed to that of ignominy and aversion. When a yellow colour is communicated to dull and coarse surfaces^ such as common cloth, felt, or the like, on which it does not appear with full energy, the disagreeable effect alluded to is apparent. Thus, the colour of sulphur, which inclines to green, has a something unpleasant in it. State is agreeable and gladdening, and in its utmost power is serene and noble, it is, on the other hand, extremely liable to contamination, and produces a very disagreeable effect if it is sullied, or in some degree tends to the minus side. In its highest purity it always carries with it the nature of brightness, and has a serene, gay, softly exciting character. How the chemical yellow develops itself in and upon the white, has been circumstantially described in its proper place. In prismatic experiments it extends itself alone and widely in the light space, and while the two poles remain separated from each other, before it mixes with blue to produce green it is to be seen in its utmost purity and beauty.
It appears on the slightest mitigation of light, whether by semi-transparent mediums or faint reflection from white surfaces.
While the color changes will follow a predictable pattern, the only way to know what mood might be associated with a color is by experimentation.This is the colour nearest the light. Placing a yellow dome over a blue pigment would make it appear green, for example. Since multiple colors may be displayed on a single bead, it's safe to say the colors cannot be used to predict the wearer's mood.įinally, the color of a mood ring may be changed by placing a colored glass, quartz, or plastic dome over the thermochromic crystals. The beads are interesting because a single bead may display an entire rainbow of color, with the warmest color facing the skin and the coolest color (black or brown) away from the body. Mood "stones" used for beads are typically coated with a polymer to protect them from damage. Modern mood jewelry is still affected by water and may turn permanently brown or black when wet. If the ring got wet or even exposed to high humidity, the pigments would react with the water and lose their ability to change color. Old mood rings were notoriously susceptible to permanent damage. Did the mood of the wearer change? No, it's just that the chest is warmer than the fingers! A mood ring may display a color from its cool range, while the same stone might turn a warmer color as a necklace the touches the skin. Since the color of mood jewelry depends on temperature, it will give different readings depending where you wear it. Black mood jewelry could be cold or could be damaged.
