Correct. A filter on the camera and ploarized light behind the object generated either by a ploarized filter or naturally polarized light reflecting off of a surface.

Now want a speciat treat? Hold the plastic knife between the filters and flex it. The colors change because they represent stresses on the part.

Try redoing the shoot and if you get the same results you will know how you did it. :)

They appear to be on something very thin and reflective as there are reflections below each of the objects in very close proximity to the objects.

It appears to me that they are leaning against the wall or whatever was used for the backdrop.

If you look closely at the bottom of the plates, notice how close they are to the back "wall."

Did you have them in a box with reflective material?

Looks like they are sitting on a plate of glass with a black sheet or something under it. No idea how you got the effect.

Polarizing filter(s) on the light(s) and on the camera.
