Abstract
A decorative polymeric article and a composition for its preparation are provided. The pleasing aesthetics of the article are realized by the combination of fillers such as alumina trihydrate and from about 0.01-2 percent by weight of the article of colored, very short fibers such as nylon flock. The overall translucency of the article provided by the alumina trihydrate enables the flock to impart a dappled effect to the article.
