No Tariff on Rhinestones!

No Tariff on Rhinestones!

Posted by Rhinestones Unlimited on Jul 31st 2025

Great News for Rhinestone Enthusiasts!

We wanted to take a moment to chat with you about something that might sound a little less sparkly than our beautiful crystals: tariffs.

For those unfamiliar, a tariff is essentially a tax imposed by the government on goods imported from other countries. These tariffs are collected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection and, like the weather, are something that is unfortunately outside of our control here at Rhinestones Unlimited.

Now for the good news! We know that unexpected costs can put a damper on your creative projects. That's why we made a proactive decision here at Rhinestones Unlimited. In anticipation of potential tariffs, we took a bit of a leap and brought in a significant amount of inventory before these changes could directly impact you.

The latest news, updated July 31, 2025

Because of this foresight, we are thrilled to make the following announcements regarding tariffs and price changes.

  • As of August 1, 2025, there will be a 15% tariff on goods from the EU, including rhinestones manufactured in Europe which includes MAXIMA Crystals by Preciosa and LUX European Crystal.
  • As of August 1, 2025, there is approx. 34% tariff on Chinese products which includes our Starcut Crystal and PriceLess Crystal.  
  • THE GOOD NEWS: We are committed to holding our current prices, with no price increases or added tariffs, until September 1st! 
  • In September 2025, you will see the annual price increase on of 2% start to update online for MAXIMA Crystals by Preciosa and LUX European Crystal.  We received this price increase in April but have held off from passing this along due to the uncertainty of tariffs.  
  • In September 2025, you will see increases in products manufactured in China.  We will update this article once we know more about the impact and timing of Chinese tariffs. 
  • MORE GOOD NEWS: We are committed to no added tariffs on MAXIMA Crystals by Preciosa and LUX European Crystal products we have in inventory, until January 1st! That's right!  We planned ahead and you benefit.  

Please note that special ordered products will be subject to any applicable tariffs. Additionally, if you place a large order that exceeds our current in-stock inventory levels, we will be in touch to let you know how much of your order we can fulfill at the current, tariff-free pricing.  Anything purchased on our website and not in excess of current inventory levels (which is a lot!) will be sent tariff free!
