The present invention is directed to obtaining an object having an anisotropic reflection characteristic without using a lenticular lens. A print product including a print medium on which a repetitive structure of projected portions and recessed portions is formed out of image forming materials including a color material includes a first layer formed on surfaces of the projected portions out of a first color material among the image forming materials, and a second layer formed on the recessed portions out of a second color material different from the first color material, wherein the projected portions have a height to occlude part of the second layer when observed at an angle different from an angle formed by a normal to a surface of the print medium.

This specification relates to a decoration member including: a substrate; a pattern layer comprising two or more unit pattern provided on one surface of the substrate; and an inorganic layer formed on the pattern layer, in which the inorganic layer includes a region in which a thickness t(x) of the inorganic layer formed on each unit pattern increases in a direction x in which the unit patterns are arranged.

The present disclosure relates to a decoration member comprising: a color expression layer comprising a light reflection layer and a light absorption layer provided on the light reflection layer; and a substrate provided on one surface of the color expression layer, in which the light absorption layer comprises a copper nickel oxide (Cu.sub.aNi.sub.bO.sub.x).

A security document with unidirectional visual illumination is disclosed. A security feature is positioned within the document and not visible in normal ambient lighting conditions but becomes visible under specialized lighting conditions, for example in the presence of ultraviolet light. The security feature is constructible such that it is visible only from a single side of the security document, with the side being predeterminable regardless of the orientation of the specialized light.

An ink contains a water-soluble organic solvent, a glittery pigment having a median size less than 300 nm, and a polycarbonate-based urethane resin.

The invention relates to a transfer film (1), in particular hot-stamping film, the use of a transfer film (1), a film, a security document (2), and a method for producing a transfer film (1). Here, it is provided that the transfer film (1) comprises a transfer layer (20) detachably arranged on a carrier layer (10). The transfer layer (20) further has at least one first color layer (30) and the at least one first color layer (30) comprises at least one binder and at least first pigments, the color appearance of which changes depending on the observation angle.

An artistic presentation in the form of a shadow box is disclosed where the shadow box has been augmented with various dynamic visual effects. One such dynamic visual effect is the movement of water across the shadow box, simulating rain droplets, waterfall, sheets of water, or aerosolized water such as fog or mist. When combined with various lighting effects, the combined dynamic visual presentation permits a constantly changing visual appearance that can recycle and go on indefinitely.
