Abstract: The present invention relates to spherical laminated particles each comprising a core particle and a laminate part disposed on a surface of the core particle, wherein the laminate part has a compressive modulus which is smaller than that of the core particle. These spherical laminated particles have a large compressive strength and is excellent in the recovery from a deformation by an arbitrary load, when the load is removed afterwward, as compared with conventional elastic particles composed of a single substance. Therefore, the use of these spherical laminated particles as spacers minimizes the difference in extent of displacement of spacer particles attributed to the difference in load on individual spacer particles caused by, for example, the waviness of a substrate for liquid crystal display cell during the manufacturing of the liquid crystal display cell, so that the cell gap uniformity can be ensured.
