criant adj garish, discordantly coloured. [French] Chambers, 1998
I'm having fun applying this adjective to some of the nouns I've found on my travels:
A criant dratchell.
A criant bagarre.
A criant jingbang.
A criant morkin.
I don't think a single one of those is actually appropriate.
Oh, also, check out another act of plagiarism thrown this way by @sheennotheard : http://tiny.cc/ZS4FI He says his sword is mightier than his pen is, but I wonder.
