Unit price
SKU: 12RH512
12RH512: Preciosa Chaton Viva Ss12 Crystal AB-288PC is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
These Preciosa Chaton Viva rhinestones in SS12 come 288 pieces to a pack — enough to commit to a full pavé panel, a beaded bodice, or a seriously encrusted pair of shoes without running short mid-project.
The Aurora Borealis coating lays a permanent iridescent rainbow shift over clear crystal, so the stones throw spectral color from every angle rather than straight white sparkle.
Specifications
- Color: Crystal
- Finish: Aurora Borealis AB
- Material: Glass Crystal, made in Bohemia, Czechia
- Quantity: 288 Pieces
What to make with them
Use them in pavé-style resin castings where the AB shift reads through a clear pour, or set them in glue-down nail and textile work where the SS12 size hits that sweet spot between subtle and show-stopping. They also work beautifully stitched into bead embroidery as accent stones alongside seed beads.
