      ha is that what you call it my friend was telling me about it but i have never seen it before i first noticed the paperweight as i moved that there first then i bought the duck the other week it was similar purple but didn't think it would do the same lol is it just the purple colour that does it or is there different colours sorry for asking but i don't know :) Sharon

      Neodymium typically just causes a change from blue to purple depending on the light source.
      I'm not sure if their are other glass additives that can due anything similar.
