Swarovski Hotfix Flat Back Crystals (2000, 2038 & 2078) Jet Transparent
Swarovski hotfix crystals Round (2000 Rose, 2038 Xilion & 2078 Xirius) in Jet Transparent are flat back crystals where the reverse side of the crystal has been pre-coated with a heat-sensitive glue. Jet is a black colour that is often associated with darkness, mystery, sophistication, and elegance. It is the absence of all visible light and is the darkest possible colour. Jet can have a powerful and dramatic impact when used in design, fashion, and other creative fields. It can also be a symbol of mourning, as it is traditionally worn at funerals in many cultures. The Transparent effect allows the crystal to take on the colour of the material behind it, as the bonding agent is applied to the reverse side of the non-mirror finished crystal.
Swarovski hotfix flat back crystals are available in three types of cut: 2000 Rose Cut with 8 facets (SS3 and SS4); 2038 Xilion Rose Cut with 14 facets which optimises the light reflection of smaller sized crystals (SS5 to SS10); and 2078 Xirius Rose Cut with 16 facets and a unique star cut design which provides the ultimate brilliance (SS12 to SS48).
