Juliet Blue Iridium

So Ice lenses from late 90’s and 2000’s are definitely not as dull as ice from the last decade. Look at any ice lenses from flak or square wire the last few years and they are way duller than ice from the years of the Juliet’s. Certainly makes it harder to tell blue and ice apart.
Yep and that's my dilemma right now. These are all juliet lenses. Only one is definitely ice and the rest looks blue with purple hue
 
There is a thread on here that's talks about all the lovely blues and the difference.

OO Blue has traces of green sometimes
 
upon further inspection i can clearly say i still don't know if my juliet lenses are blue iridium or not. I placed the most blue iridium looking in the polished frame. I'm 100% it's blue iridium but the one in the plasma (top) and first gen (bottom) i'm still not sure if ice or blue

They look like Blue iridium or the OO blue as they have some purple, old school.
The polished Julie’s with blue iridium have hints of purple, mine did and they were complete and matching so there was no question.
I’m not sure if only the Ichiros claimed the OO blue crown in Xmetals. Perhaps!
Definite blue iridium
 
Looking at o-review, as far as x-metals are concerned, it was only a JB Juliet that is listed as having 'Polished/Blue'.... all others (apart from Ichiros) have 'Ice' lenses.
