Picking the right shape for your client

You're starting out in tooth gem application

Begin with Swarovski rounds: Rose 2000 (SS3-SS4) for the ultra-discreet first-time placement, or Xilion Rose 2058 (SS5-SS9) for the broadest color palette (Crystal, AB, Light Rose, Aquamarine and more). Standard sizes, simple handling, palette that covers 90% of client requests. Our Starter Pack €95 bundles the essentials for the first 50 placements.

You want to stand out on Instagram and TikTok

Go for signature shapes that generate 2-3× more social engagement than a classic round: Heart 2808, Star Flower 2754, Butterfly, or Navette 2200. Target: 18-25 yo, content creators, summer festivals, « coquette core » and « fairy core » trends.

You target the bridal and premium event client base

Prioritize Diamond Shape 2773 for solitaire signature, Marquise 2201 for elegant oval, or Raindrop 2304 for the poetic teardrop. Service pricing: €50-90 per placement, comfortable margin, high-end signature recognized by brides.

You want the « quiet luxury » 25-35 yo signature

Go for the rare geometric shapes: Baguette 2510 for the art deco vertical rectangle, or Square 2400 for the minimalist square. Directly inspired by 1920s Cartier and Tiffany « solitaire » — old money visual code in high demand in 2026.

You're an advanced artist looking to break the mold

Explore the Connector 2715, the only Swarovski crystal designed to link multiple stones together. Chained placement of 3-5 links aligned, « light necklace » composition, advanced technique that justifies a €80-150 service.

SS sizes — millimeter equivalents

The « SS » (Stone Size) code is the international Swarovski nomenclature. The higher the number, the larger the stone:

• SS3 = 1.4 mm — ultra-discreet placement, micro-constellation
• SS4 = 1.6 mm — discreet daily placement
• SS5 = 1.8 mm — standard tooth gem size (bestseller)
• SS7 = 2.2 mm — bold visible placement
• SS9 = 2.6 mm — maximum size recommended for incisor

Assorted packs to start or diversify

• Starter Pack €95 — complete starter, 50 placements, Swarovski round shapes
• Crystal shapes pack €39 — 5-shape assortment (Heart, Marquise, Navette, Star Flower, Square)
• Crystal AB shapes pack €34 — aurora borealis version of the above
• Butterflies multi-color pack €90 — the 2026 multi-tone trend

Frequently asked questions about Swarovski shapes

Which Swarovski shape to choose for a first-time placement?

The Rose 2000 SS3-SS4 remains the reference for beginners: discreet size, broad color palette, accessible price. For a more visible effect, the Xilion Rose 2058 SS5 is the all-season bestseller with 20+ colors in the MFS catalog.

What's the difference between Marquise 2201 and Navette 2200?

Both are elongated « cat eye » shapes. The Navette 2200 has sharp, bold points (gen Z 18-25 audacious signature). The Marquise 2201 has softer points (elegant, 20-35 yo bridal target).

How long does a Swarovski tooth gem placement last?

Longevity depends on the protocol (etching + primer + composite + polymerization) and the client's habits (chewing, brushing). Expect several weeks to several months depending on conditions. The shape choice does not influence longevity — placement technique and adhesive quality are the determining factors.

Over 170 student testimonials of trainees becoming professional tooth gem artists. Illustrated PDF + step-by-step videos + certificate delivered within 48-72h.
