Frequently Asked Questions

What color is Blue Zircon in rhinestones?

Blue Zircon is a cool, sophisticated teal-blue named after the gemstone. It reads as a striking blue-green under stage and natural lighting, deeper and more jewel-toned than Aqua Bohemica and more teal-leaning than Capri Blue. It is a popular choice for elegant costume work, bridal pieces, and designs that call for a cool, refined blue-green with gemstone depth.

What is the difference between Blue Zircon and Capri Blue?

Capri Blue is a vivid, saturated marine blue that reads as bright and bold. Blue Zircon is cooler and more teal-leaning, with a deeper, more sophisticated quality. Side by side, Capri Blue reads as energetic and vivid while Blue Zircon reads as refined and gemstone-like.

What is 10ss in millimeters?

10ss rhinestones measure approximately 2.7mm – 2.9mm. They are a good choice for outlines, accent rows, and nail art where you need slightly more visibility than extra-small sizes without moving into mid-sized coverage territory.
