Irregular Galaxy shifts through warm red, gold, and green in a luminous multichrome finish, punctuated by sparkling green reflective glitter. It’s inspired by infrared imagery of Barnard’s Galaxy, where chartreuse gas clouds drift through amber space alongside vivid red star-forming regions.

Dimensional and constantly shifting at every angle. Full coverage in 2-3 coats. Reflective glitter may benefit from an extra layer of top coat for a smoother finish.

Polishes should be stored in a cool and dark area. Shake well before use.

This James Webb Space Telescope NIRCam and MIRI image shows gas and dust in the irregular galaxy NGC 6822, also known as Barnard’s Galaxy. This galaxy is about 1.5 million light-years away and is part of the Local Group of galaxies which hosts the Milky Way and Andromeda. NGC 6822 is the Milky Way’s nearest galactic neighbor that is not one of its satellites.
This galaxy has a low metallicity, meaning that it contains low amounts of elements heavier than hydrogen or helium. This makes it an interesting object to study in the context of star formation, as the conditions in NGC 6822 are similar to those of the early Universe, where there were very low levels of elements other than hydrogen and helium.
