How does the rainbow gradient work?
Multiple hues are co-extruded into one filament, so color shifts gradually along each layer and between layers - every part comes out with its own gradient position.

01 · Why this one
Product highlights
3 reasonsGlossy silk sheen over rainbow gradients gives vases and planters a finish that photographs like hand-finished pieces.
Tangle-free winding keeps the multi-color strand feeding cleanly - gradient prints are long, and snags ruin them mid-run.
Gradient position varies part to part, making each decor piece naturally one-of-a-kind - a selling angle, not a defect.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the rainbow gradient work?
Multiple hues are co-extruded into one filament, so color shifts gradually along each layer and between layers - every part comes out with its own gradient position.
Is it compatible with my FDM printer?
Yes, compatible with mainstream 1.75mm FDM single-nozzle printers; it feeds like ordinary PLA.
What temperature should I print at?
Recommended nozzle range is 200-225°C; adjust within the range for your machine and desired sheen.
How much can one 1kg spool print?
Depends on model size, infill and layer height; divide 1000g by your average part weight to estimate parts per spool.
Will two prints look identical?
No - gradient position varies part to part. For decor this is a one-of-a-kind feature; we state it clearly so buyers expect variation.
What is rainbow silk PLA best for?
Vases, planters, candle holders and decorative models where shifting color adds display value - decorative, not structural, due to silk layer bonding.
How should it be stored?
Vacuum sealed with desiccant; keep sealed and dry so the sheen prints glossy and colors stay true.
