These 3mm machine-cut crystal diamonds come on a 16-inch strand with a metallic blue iris finish that earns the 'AAA' grade — tight facets, consistent sizing, and a surface that catches light the way plated metal does. If you work with small-scale crystal and care about uniformity, this strand delivers.

The metallic blue iris finish sits fully opaque on the surface, giving each facet a plated, almost industrial gleam that shifts with the light rather than transmitting it.

What to make with them

At 3mm, these diamonds are well-suited for fine bead embroidery, where their faceted profile adds dimension without overwhelming a design, and they work equally well strung in graduated or uniform necklaces where the metallic surface reads as a continuous band of color. Their diamond cut also makes them a natural fit for right-angle weave or cubic RAW panels, where each facet aligns with its neighbor for a seamless, armor-like effect.
