Flat back 144pk crystal AB foil back, Swarovski® 8x5mm pear 2303

As cool and crisp as ice chips or the stars' glow on a chilly winter evening, crystal clear provides a fresh perspective on an often-overlooked color. Its ability to blend in with bold color palettes and stand out amongst softer hues embodies limitless design opportunities.

The Swarovski® AB effect, named for aurora borealis (the northern lights), is a term for crystal stones that have a highly iridescent surface. Created in 1955 in collaboration with Christian Dior, the effect is achieved by vapor blasting the facets of the lower part of the crystals with an invisible, micro-thin metal sheet.

Foil backing provides versatility, allowing the crystals to be incorporated into clays, molds and settings while retaining their color and vibrancy.

Add the signature Swarovski sparkle to designs with this variation of the classic pear shape. UIncorporate into an array of designs including wirework, polymer clay, metal clay, Apoxie® Sculpt, ICE Resin® or Vitrium® Clay. The flat backs have a foil backing that adheres with a jeweler's glue, such as G-S Hypo Cementor Jewel Bond™
