Frequently Asked Questions

What color is Sun in rhinestones?

Sun is a vivid golden-orange with warm, energetic brightness. It reads as a bold, saturated orange-gold under stage and natural lighting, warmer and more orange than plain Topaz and brighter and more golden than Amber. It is a popular choice for tropical themes, fall designs, cheer uniforms, and western wear.

What is the difference between Sun and Topaz?

Topaz is a warm golden-amber that reads as more amber-toned and less orange than Sun. Sun is brighter, more vivid, and more distinctly orange-gold. Side by side, Sun is the bolder and more energetic of the two, while Topaz reads as richer and more classic amber.

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.
