- iridescence: Silver and Bismuth.

- black: two or more cobalt, copper, iron, and nickel oxides, or Iron and Carbon.

- gray: Nickel oxide and Titanium dioxide.

- purple: neodymium oxide.

- blue: Cobalt oxide, copper oxide.

- blue-green: Iron chromate, or copper oxide.

- green: iron oxide and Chromic oxide.

- yellow-green: Chromic oxide, or Cadmium sulfide.

- yellow: uranium oxide, Iron/Manganese, Ceric oxide, or Silver oxide (surface).
