Lucite is the Dupont Companyâ€™s trade name for â€œPlexiglas,â€ a lightweight, transparent thermoplastic resin, used for making jewelry. The term â€œLuciteâ€ is commonly used today to describe many thermoplastics. Lucite pieces are commonly used for â€œreverse carvingsâ€ in their design. This involves the carving-out of one side of a solid, molded piece of Lucite, creating a window-like view of the carving from the uncarved side.
