Pink and purple is the most requested pairing for personal prints: name signs, jewellery boxes, small figures and party favours. The two colours are close enough to flow into one another, so the result looks like a dyed gradient rather than two plastics stuck together. The silk gloss lifts it further, drawing a soft highlight along every curve of the model. Makers selling at markets find it moves faster than single colours on the same table, because a customer can see the effect from several steps away without picking anything up.
