You may wish to use images instead of text to showcase the variant options of a product.
One way to do this is with Color swatches however these are tied to categories and require some additional setup. If you are already displaying all your variant images in the Product media then you can pull these into your variant swatches so your customer can quickly see all the variants on offer at a glance.
