Frequently Asked Questions

What color is Light Sapphire in rhinestones?

Light Sapphire is a clear, pale sky blue with cool undertones. It reads as soft, airy, and luminous under stage and natural lighting — noticeably lighter and more delicate than Sapphire, and cooler in tone than Aquamarine. It is a strong choice for designs that call for a refined, ethereal blue rather than a bold or saturated one.

What are 30ss rhinestones best for?

30ss rhinestones measure approximately 6.3mm – 6.5mm and are one of the larger hotfix 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 Light Sapphire and Sapphire at 30ss?

Sapphire is a rich, jewel-toned blue with strong saturation and depth. Light Sapphire is a much paler, clearer version of the same hue — softer and more translucent in character. Under stage lighting, Sapphire reads as bold and dramatic while Light Sapphire reads as delicate and refined.

Can I mix Light Sapphire 30ss hotfix with smaller sizes for a layered effect?

Yes. Pairing 30ss stones as focal accents with 16ss or 20ss fill stones in Light Sapphire is a common technique for graduated coverage. Because MAXIMA crystals are sorted to strict size tolerances, Light Sapphire at different sizes will match in color and finish throughout the design.
