Swarovski recently stopped production of the wildly popular 2058 Flat Back rhinestone and all sizes above 12ss and all colors are now discontinued. This is in favor of the new Xirius cut they released. Unfortunately, this new cut also comes with a price increase!
We are getting very limited in some sizes and colors in the 2058 – we are suggesting you order ahead and order extra for any future projects or simply to have on hand for replacement stones!
