A decoration element is described. The decoration element includes a light reflective layer; a light absorbing layer provided on the light reflective layer; and a color developing layer comprising a color film, wherein the color developing layer is provided: on a surface of the light reflective layer opposite to a surface of the light reflective layer facing the light absorbing layer; between the light reflective layer and the light absorbing layer; or on a surface of the light absorbing layer opposite to a surface of the light absorbing layer facing the light reflective layer.

A carbon decorative panel includes a carbon-toned irregular surface. The carbon-toned irregular surface has a plurality of unit patterns that constitute a weave of pseudo carbon fiber bundles presenting carbon fiber bundles in a pseudo manner, as the protrusions and depressions that form the carbon-toned pattern. A plurality of unit patterns each have a top portion positioned at the center in the extending direction of the pseudo carbon fiber bundle and a pair of curved portions positioned on both sides of the top portion in the extending direction and formed in a curved shape. The curvature of a pair of curved portions in the section along the extending direction of a pair of curved portions is greater on the center portion side than on the end portion side in the crossing direction that crosses the extending direction.

A radar cover for covering a radar unit which detects a situation around a vehicle, includes: a base portion which serves as a frame; a bright layer which is formed on a surface of the base portion and is a discontinuous metal layer having openings penetrating therethrough in a layer thickness direction; and a transparent top coat layer formed on a surface of the bright layer, parts of the top coat layer being in close contact with the base portion through the openings of the bright layer.

An embossed sheet configuring a decorative sheet includes a sheet-shaped base that has translucency, and a plurality of reflective portions provided on one surface of the base. Each of the plurality of reflective portions has a reflective main surface that reflects incident light, and connecting surfaces that are provided between the reflective main surface and the base. Each reflective main surface is rectilinear on a first cross-section and curvilinear on a second cross-section. A gradient of a straight line at a center position of the reflective main surface that is rectilinear on the first cross-section, in relation to the one surface of the base, varies within a range of 40 degrees in each of the plurality of reflective portions. As a result, the reflective portion can reflect incident light at regular and non-regular angles.

A dial for a watch, in particular a wristwatch, having a disk with a surface on which information is arranged. Some of the information is transparent, said transparent information being visible or at least nearly invisible according to the viewing angle. The dial of the invention has a simple and yet sophisticated look. Furthermore, the dial allows a watchmaker's name to be shown without same significantly impacting the look.

A decoration method of a printed matter includes: forming a printed layer on a surface of a sheet or of a mounting paper with a transparent varnish, printing a predetermined pattern on the surface of the printed layer by an ink or by a resin which are capable of being adhered to the printed layer; and pressing a metal foil onto the pattern printed by the ink or the resin with an adhesive agent. The adhesive agent does not adhere to the printed layer but adheres to the pattern. As a result, the metal foil 6 is printed only to the pattern.

An optical imaging film includes: a focusing layer, having two or more focusing structures; and a graphic layer, having two or more sub-graphics, and at least part of the sub-graphics are configured as a partial pattern of a preset graphic. The focusing layer is adapted to the graphic layer, and the focusing structures are provided corresponding to the sub-graphics, such that the optical imaging film presents an image of the preset graphic with a magnifying effect. The graphic layer of the optical imaging film includes a plurality of sub-graphics, and each of the plurality of the sub-graphics interacts with the corresponding focusing structure to form an image with a magnifying effect. Therefore, the sub-graphic is relatively large, thereby increasing the size of the images. That is, the optical imaging film can increase the magnification of the preset graphic.

A decorative panel has a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer. The first layer may be transparent, the second layer is fully or partially reflective, and the third layer is partially reflective or transparent. A cavity having an opening in the shape of a design is formed within a portion of the second layer. The opening is configured to allow light to enter the decorative panel through the second layer. The light entering the decorative panel will be outputted by the third layer in a shape substantially similar to the design.

A decorative structure includes a contoured base having a top surface; an adhesive layer applied to the top surface; a reflective material secured to the adhesive layer; a resin composed of a phosphorescent pigment material and applied to the reflective material; and a plurality of non-transparent objects bonded to the resin.

A vehicle component includes a colored translucent plastic component having a front side and a back side, and a metallic layer arranged on the back side of the plastic component.
