Your Most Premium Crystal Option

MAXIMA Crystal was introduced by Preciosa® as their most premium crystal in 2018. Being a Swarovski Authorized Reseller and carrying a heavy inventory in Swarovski’s Xirius 2058 and 2088 flat back and 2038 and 2078 hot fix crystal, we did not see a need to bring in a 5^th line of crystals. In the wake of the Swarovski news of restructuring and the discontinuing of their wholesale/resale business in dance, costuming, nails, and DIY, we immediately decided to bring in the MAXIMA crystal as our new premium brand.

MAXIMA Not to be Confused with VIVA12

Rhinestones Unlimited has reached the ranks of Preciosa Authorized Partner with the sale of their VIVA12 flat back rhinestone over the past decade. The VIVA12 is a beautiful cost-effective crystal with superior faceting and brilliant shine. You can still purchase these beautiful rhinestones as part of our LUX Austrian Crystal brand. Preciosa VIVA12 is our new choice for replacing the Stellux rhinestones made in the Swarovski factory under our brand name LUX Austrian Crystal, a premiere rhinestone brand specifically curated for costuming of the performing arts. When comparing Preciosa product pricing, please be aware of the two qualities of crystal coming out of the Preciosa factories- their most premium MAXIMA Crystals By Preciosa and their lower priced alternative crystal, the Preciosa VIVA12.
