Lucite

Lucite is a high-quality form of acrylic plastic resin that appeared during the 1940s. It comes in a variety of colors, and styles, in both crystal-clear and solid forms. What characterizes Lucite is its strength, crystal transparency, high stability and resistance to UV rays, wind, and water. Lucite is also lightweight, malleable and even clearer than glass, making it an excellent option for creating knobs, handles, curtain rods, and other deluxe home hardware. Nowadays, lucite is widely used in furniture, jewelry, decorative objects and much more. Although lucite is a transparent material, it can get different hues, including opaque, clear and semi-transparent hues with the addition of other substances. Known for its durability, lucite is a material that receives deep appreciation by many collectors worldwide.
