MINERALS AND COLORS | RED

1. Light passing through a transparent prism is decomposed into the 7 colors of the rainbow.

The color of minerals is one of their great attractions. When light, which is composed of the 7 colors of the rainbow (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet), falls upon them, the part of it that is reflected produces the color we can appreciate. The rest is absorbed by their surface.

Transparent and translucent minerals allow light to pass through them.

3. Red Roses.

If we want to catch the attention, we only have to dress in RED or wear accessories in this color. It is the color of success, energy, vitality and leadership. Many brands use it as a corporative color.

We identify it with risk, danger and the forbidden. Warning signs have this color. It is also related to courage. It is the color of blood and HEART. Of vibrant, passionate and decisive moments.

Red is a warm and cheerful color, which we choose when we want to lift our spirits and take action. We associate it with love, with seduction, with glamour. A bouquet of red roses carries a clear message, without the need for a card.

Red touches in the rooms give warmth and stimulate the senses.
