Nicodemus is a dusky dark purple to symbolize the time of day Saint Nicodemus, a pharisee went to visit Jesus. Nicodemus is a very interesting person in scripture because we can watch is faith journey unfold in the Gospel of John. While he initially would only seek Jesus out in the dark of night, we see him coming to the defense of Jesus when he was on trial before the Sanhedrin and then assisting Joseph of Arimathea with the burial of Jesus.
There is no sparkle or shimmer in this polish.
