Superposed colors graphic for providing a continuous color fade transition between two colors
First Claim
1. A superposed colors graphic providing a continuous color fade transition between two different colors, comprising:
- a transparent substrate having a first side surface and an opposite second side surface;
a first color graphic applied to said first side surface, said first color graphic having a first color fade of color intensity of a first color extending between a first origin and a first terminus; and
a second color graphic applied to said second side surface, said second color graphic having a second color fade of color intensity of a second color different from said first color extending between a second origin and a second terminus;
wherein said first and second color fades are mutually superposed such that direction of said first color fade from said first origin to said first terminus is opposite to direction of said second color fade from said second origin to said second terminus so as to thereby provide a continuous fade between said first and second colors.

Abstract
A superposed colors graphic providing a true, continuous color fade transition between two different colors achieved by applying first and second color graphics onto respectively different side surfaces of at least one transparent substrate, each color graphic having a respective color fade. The first and second color graphics are mutually aligned such that the color fade of each of the color graphics are mutually coextensive and superposed so as to thereby provide a continuous fade between the colors. The first and second color graphics may be applied to the respective substrate side surfaces by any suitable method, such as for example by silk screening, by lithography or by decorative film applique.

a transparent substrate having a first side surface and an opposite second side surface;
a first color graphic applied to said first side surface, said first color graphic having a first color fade of color intensity of a first color extending between a first origin and a first terminus; and
a second color graphic applied to said second side surface, said second color graphic having a second color fade of color intensity of a second color different from said first color extending between a second origin and a second terminus;
wherein said first and second color fades are mutually superposed such that direction of said first color fade from said first origin to said first terminus is opposite to direction of said second color fade from said second origin to said second terminus so as to thereby provide a continuous fade between said first and second colors. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)

8. A superposed colors graphic for providing a continuous color fade transition between two different colors, comprising:
-
a transparent first substrate having a first substrate first side surface and an opposite first substrate second side surface;
a first color graphic applied to said first substrate first side surface, said first color graphic having a first color fade of color intensity of a first color extending between a first origin and a first terminus;
a second substrate having a second substrate first side surface and an opposite second substrate second side surface; and
a second color graphic applied to said second substrate first side surface, said second color graphic having a second color fade of color intensity of a second color different from said first color extending between a second origin and a second terminus;
wherein said first and second substrates are mutually adjacent such that said first and second color fades are mutually superposed, wherein the superposition is such that direction of said first color fade from said first origin to said first terminus is opposite to direction of said second color fade from said second origin to said second terminus so as to thereby provide a continuous fade between said first and second colors. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method for providing a superposed colors graphic featuring a continuous color fade transition between two different colors, comprising the steps of:
-
applying a first color graphic to a side surface of at least one selected transparent substrate, wherein the first color graphic has a first color fade of color intensity of a first color extending between a first origin and a first terminus;
applying a second color graphic to another side surface of the at least one selected transparent substrate, wherein the second color graphic has a second color fade of color intensity of a second color extending between a second origin and a second terminus;
wherein said steps of applying mutually superposes said first and second color fades such that direction of said first color fade from said first origin to said first terminus is opposite to direction of said second color fade from said second origin to said second terminus so as to thereby provide a continuous fade between said first and second colors. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
