Crystal and Jewel Assortment Balloons

What is a jewel or crystal balloon?

Crystal or jewel-toned latex are translucent balloons that allow more light to go through them– compared to standard solid color latex balloons which do not allow as much light through– or latex balloons with a pearl or metallic tone that let little light through the balloon and have a glitter finish. Crystal color balloons have declined in popularity so a few manufacturers have stopped making as many colors or discontinued manufacturing crystal colors altogether.  Other manufacturers have added pastel colors which have been popular in the past few years.

Please Note: Qualatex latex brand uses the term ‘jewel,’ whereas almost all other brands refer to their translucent latex balloons as ‘crystal.’

Tip: The more you inflate a balloon– the more it will stretch the latex allowing more light and outlines of objects to be seen through the balloon.

The color of an un-inflated latex balloon will not look the same as when it is inflated. To see the actual color of a latex balloon, you will have to inflate it to size. Once the latex stretches and the light hits the balloon you will be able to see the real color.
