Vitrail Medium 12mm Vintage Swarovski 3700 Margarita 2 Pieces With or Without a Setting

Vitrail Medium 12mm Vintage Swarovski Margarita With or Without a Setting. Yes, you read that correctly - margarita beads with or without settings. I absolutely love margarita beads; the vibrant color, the flower shape. The problem is, they are primarily used as spacers on their 'side'. That's not a 'bad' thing, it just seems a waste of so much sparkly goodness. But put them in a sew-on type setting, and you expand their design possibilities tenfold. Listing price is for 2 pieces, with or without settings.

It took a bit of experimenting, and not all sizes have a setting that works with them, but these 12mm margaritas do. There is a slight overhang, but not enough to be unsightly. And the margarita bead hole? I chose to use a flat headpin, secured under the setting (not included), but you could use a bead, ball headpin, or a crystal - totally up to you. Settings are high quality brass plated sew-on type settings. There are 4 holes at the base of the setting, 2 on 2 sides.

Swarovski's Vitrail Medium color is a vibrant, dynamic effect characterized by a combination of colors that shift and shimmer with light and viewing angle. It features a base of deep, saturated green with reflective hues of pink, purple, orange, and yellow. This creates a kaleidoscope-like effect, making the crystal appear to change colors as it moves.  Vitrail Medium is a popular and well-regarded color for Swarovski crystals, thanks to its striking visual appeal.

A small note about foil-backed stones: Swarovski’s sew-ons are excellent quality; I have at least 3 I rarely take off. However, some chemicals, oils, and lotions can eat away at the foil on the back of the crystal. If in doubt, whether something will hurt the foil, take the ring (or other piece of jewelry off.
