(2)シート面からの仰角が60度以上90度未満の範囲であり、シート面の方位角依存性について測定した場合、所定の方位角において、Bragg反射の強度が最大値を有する。
上記条件(1)により、本発明による樹脂固定コロイド結晶シートのシート面に対して正対する観察者の観察軸と、照明光の照明軸とが重ならずにBragg反射を観察することができるので、シート面に対して正対する観察者は、容易に構造色を観察することができる。また、上記条件(2)により、本発明による樹脂固定コロイド結晶シートは、構造色の強い発色を可能とする。さらに、上記条件(1)及び(2)を満たす本発明の樹脂固定コロイド結晶シートを用いれば、観察者は、表面反射光がBragg反射光と重ならない条件で構造色を観察できるので、鮮やかな発色効果を得られる。
