80CD544: Crystal Diamond Siam AB A A A 3MM 16" String is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
These 3mm machine-cut crystal diamond beads in Siam AB deliver a deep red base with a lively iridescent overcoat — a lot of fire packed into a small package. One 16-inch strand gives you serious sparkle for fine-detail work without committing to a large quantity.
The AB coating layers a multi-color iridescent sheen over the rich Siam red, so the color shifts and catches light differently depending on the angle — somewhere between a classic aurora borealis finish and a full oil-slick iris.
Specifications
- Size: 03mm
- Color: Reds
- Finish: Rainbow/A.B./Iris
- Material: Glass Crystal
- Quantity: 16" Strand
What to make with them
At 3mm, these diamonds are well-suited for dense peyote or brick stitch work where the faceted geometry creates a mosaic-like texture, and they're a natural choice for delicate fringe drops, chandelier earrings, or woven chokers where you want maximum sparkle with minimal visual weight.
