| Reference Reference information: Chatons are round pointed-back rhinestones. These stones are set-on the material with a rhinestone setter and using special Tiffany-Prong or Rim-Set settings. These stones cannot be glued to the fabric. In general, a Chaton has a greater depth of color, clarity, and 'sparkle' than a Rose. http://www.tutu.com/rhn_info.html |
