A Bluestreak Crystals Brand
Serinity is a brand built by Bluestreak Crystals to give designers and makers unrestricted access to premium Austrian crystal components. Manufactured in Austria and finished in the United Kingdom, Serinity chatons and round stones are produced to the same high lead-free, EU REACH-compliant standards as the world's leading crystal brands, with consistent brilliance, sizing and colour accuracy across every batch. No application, approval or brand agreement is required to buy or to use the Serinity name in your own marketing.

What Are Serinity Chatons and Round Stones?
Also known as pointed back crystals, round stones or table diamonds, Serinity chatons are multi-faceted round glass crystal stones with a pointed back and a faceted crown on the front. The pointed back concentrates light refraction to create outstanding depth of colour, distinguishing them from flatback crystals which sit flush against a surface. Chatons require a setting, cavity or bead embroidery technique to hold the pointed back securely while the faceted crown faces outward.
Foiled vs Unfoiled Chatons: What Is the Difference?
Foiled chatons have a metallic coating on the pointed back that acts as a mirror, maximising light reflection within the setting for the highest possible brilliance. Unfoiled versions allow light to pass through the stone from both sides, making them suitable for bead embroidery techniques and transparent settings where light transmission is part of the design. Both versions are available across the full size and colour range.
Are Serinity Chatons as Good as Swarovski?
Manufactured in Austria to Swarovski-equivalent lead-free standards, Serinity chatons deliver comparable brilliance, depth and consistency. Both brands use the same PP and SS sizing conventions, so sizes translate directly with no need to adjust settings, patterns or design specifications. At around 10% below equivalent Swarovski products and available to any buyer without an approval process, Serinity offers the same Austrian-made quality at a lower price.
Sizes, Colours and Finishes
Serinity chatons use the same PP (pearl plate) and SS (stone size) sizing system as Swarovski, covering the full range from PP1 through to 18mm. PP sizes cover the smallest stones used in fine detail work and bead embroidery, with SS sizes extending through to 18mm for larger focal stones. Each product listing includes the size code and millimetre equivalent for easy selection. Over 90 colours and finishes are available, including:
- Crystal (clear)
- Crystal AB — Aurora Borealis iridescent effect
- Shimmer effects
- Metallic finishes
- Seasonal and specialty colours
All sizes are available in both foiled and unfoiled versions.
What Are Serinity Chatons and Round Stones Used For?
Jewellers and designers primarily use Serinity chatons in prong and bezel settings for bespoke jewellery. Their pointed back and depth of colour also make them a favourite for bead embroidery, resin work and cup chain applications.
- Prong and bezel settings for rings, earrings, necklaces and bracelets
- Bead embroidery — stitched around with seed beads to create a fabric bezel
- Metal clay and resin jewellery — pressed into a shaped cavity
- Cup chain — small chatons set into continuous linked metal cups for border and trim work
- Couture and fashion work — dimensional set stones that add depth beyond flatback applications
