Frequently Asked Questions
What color is Shamrock in rhinestones?
Shamrock is a rich, saturated true green — bold and vibrant rather than dark or muted. It reads with strong color presence under stage and natural lighting, brighter and more vivid than Emerald and warmer and more saturated than Erinite. It is a strong choice for designs that call for a classic, energetic green that holds its color at a distance.
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 Shamrock and Emerald at 30ss?
Emerald is a deep, jewel-toned green with cool blue undertones and a dark, luxurious quality. Shamrock is brighter and more vivid, reading as a true, energetic green rather than a dark or cool one. Under stage lighting, Emerald reads as rich and sophisticated while Shamrock reads as bold and lively. They pair well in layered green designs.
Can I mix Shamrock 30ss hotfix with smaller sizes for a layered design?
Yes. Pairing 30ss stones as focal accents with 16ss or 20ss fill stones in Shamrock is a common technique for graduated coverage. Because MAXIMA crystals are sorted to strict size tolerances, Shamrock at different sizes will match in color and finish throughout the design.
