Frequently Asked Questions
What color is Blue Violet in rhinestones?
Blue Violet is a cool-toned crystal color that blends soft lavender and icy blue.

It is a popular choice for elegant gowns, skating costumes, bridal pieces, and designs that call for a cool, soft jewel tone.
What are 30ss rhinestones best for?
30ss rhinestones measure approximately 6.3mm – 6.5mm and are one of the larger flatback sizes. They are best for bold statement accents, costume borders, scattered large stones, and designs that need to read clearly from a distance under stage lights. A 2 gross pack (288 pieces) suits generous accent areas or multiple costume pieces.
What is the difference between Blue Violet and Amethyst?
Amethyst is a rich, warm purple with strong jewel-toned saturation. Blue Violet is cooler and softer, with a noticeable blue-lavender quality that reads as more ethereal and less saturated than Amethyst. Side by side, Blue Violet is the lighter, icier of the two.
