The 3D Memory Crystal Hexagon is a six-sided block of K9 optical crystal with your photo engraved inside it. Its faceted edges catch and refract light, and some people call this cut the "iceberg" crystal. This listing is the Medium size with 4K HD engraving.
After you upload a photo, a design team reviews and enhances it. It is then converted into a 3D model that fits the hexagon. A 4K laser places millions of microscopic points inside the crystal, building the image layer by layer. Because the engraving is inside the crystal, it does not fade, peel or scratch off. The finished crystal is hand-polished and inspected. The 4K HD upgrade adds about 50% more dots than Standard engraving, for finer detail and smoother gradients.
A single portrait, a couple, or a small group of two to three faces works best. Multi-person photos are sharpest from Medium size and up. A clear, well-lit photo with a plain or softly blurred background gives more depth. The crystal suits any indoor surface, such as a desk, shelf, podium, mantel or display case.
