 **selectionBarGradient** - _Object (default to null)_: Use to display the selection bar as a gradient. The given object must contain `from` and `to` properties which are colors.
 
+**ariaLabel and ariaLabelHigh** - _String (default to null)_: Use to add a label directly to the slider(s) for accessibility. Adds the `aria-label` attribute.
+
+**ariaLabelledBy and ariaLabelledByHigh** - _String (default to null)_: Use instead of ariaLabel and ariaLabelHigh to reference the id of an element which will be used to label the slider(s). Adds the `aria-labelledby` attribute.
