NEW COLOR

A new neutral joins the Preciosa® Chaton Rose MAXIMA lineup.

Introducing Chocolate — The New Preciosa® Neutral

Indulgent, sophisticated, and undeniably chic, Chocolate redefines brown for a new generation of luxury design. Inspired by dark cocoa, aged leather, and the quiet luxury of impeccably crafted materials, its rich, deep hue brings warmth and refinement to every application. Elegant yet versatile, this shade delivers a contemporary take on a timeless neutral, enriching tonal compositions, complementing deeper skin tones, and adding depth to more expressive color palettes.

From understated accents to richly embellished surfaces, it offers designers a grounded, adaptable shade with broad creative potential.

Skin-Tone Inspired Palette Light Gold Quartz | Gold Quartz | Light Colorado Topaz | Smoked Topaz | Chocolate From soft champagne to deep brown, this curated palette takes its cues from the natural spectrum of skin tones. With the addition of Chocolate, designers can explore more nuanced color matching, tonal embellishment, and subtle gradations across a wider range of applications.

KEY FEATURES

Lead-Free Sparkle

Available in our premium, lead-free Chaton Rose MAXIMA, Chocolate combines a rich, saturated brown with the precision and brilliance of our highest-performing flatback crystal.

Skin-Tone Compatibility

As the deepest shade in our skin-tone inspired palette, Chocolate extends the spectrum from Light Gold Quartz through Smoked Topaz, supporting more nuanced tonal compositions and color matching.

Beyond Flatback

Chocolate is also available in Rondelle Beads by special order, opening up possibilities for dimensional embellishment, layered textures, and intricate detailing.

A Versatile Neutral

Chocolate pairs naturally with warm neutrals, metallics, earthy shades, and saturated color, moving easily between tonal palettes and stronger contrasts.

Rich Color Depth

Deep and warm without appearing flat, Chocolate offers a refined alternative to black, bringing depth and definition to crystal embellishment.

Body Architecture Exploring the body as an architectural form — where sculptural silhouettes, corsetry and skin-inspired tones meet. A sophisticated nude palette creates the perfect setting for the new brown crystal shade.

COLOR STORY

From deep chocolate to soft nude and champagne, the palette explores the warmth and richness of natural skin tones. The new skin inspired crystal anchors the story, while lighter shades add softness, depth and luminosity.
