Swarovski Crystal is a most brilliant and fire like element and unmatched in quality and clarity. These gems are the top of the class. Offered usually only in the very high end retail shops.

Rhinestones are of a very good quality and are preferred when trying to maintain a specific budget. Rhinestones dazzle and sparkle giving every design the high spirited character that you desire while not crushing the budget. Clear stones are like diamonds and color stones are spectacular.

Faceted Metallics, as the name suggests, is metal shaped like rhinestones. The color affects of the metallics give a true gold, silver, or copper look. Other colors are also available and have the same overall dramatic appearance.

Nailheads are dome shaped, smooth metal elements. They have the appearance of a nail driven into a board. They tend to have a more masculine appearance and are used widely in leather wear

or bikers and other apparel designs. When Nailheads are used to accent rhinestones and faceted metallics the designs can take on a whole new appealing and dynamic look.
