Product Description:
Add serene, vibrant beauty and iridescent magic to your jewelry designs with our AB Rainbow Plated Multicolor Amazonite Faceted Round Beads Strands. This stunning combination pairs the soothing, colorful beauty of natural multicolor amazonite with an advanced AB (Aurora Borealis) rainbow electroplating finish – creating a spectacular display of shifting spectral colors across each bead's surface.
Multicolor amazonite is a beautiful variety of feldspar, prized for its stunning range of blue-green hues – from soft mint and seafoam green to vibrant teal, robin's egg blue, and creamy pale green – often with natural white veining, speckles, or shimmering schiller effects. Each strand offers a rainbow of serene, water-inspired tones. The AB rainbow plating coats each bead with a microscopic thin film that reflects rainbow hues – purple, blue, green, pink, gold, and teal – that shift and dance as the bead moves in the light, complementing the stone's natural colors and creating a truly enchanting, multidimensional effect.
These beads feature a 128-facet precision cut – far more facets than standard beads – creating exceptional light reflection, brilliant sparkle, and maximizing the rainbow plating effect from every angle. The beads range from approximately 6mm to 12mm in mixed sizes, offering a dynamic, graduated look perfect for statement pieces. Each strand measures approximately 38cm (15 inches) in length, strung and knotted for safe shipping. These strands are a favorite among professional jewelry designers, crystal enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a calming, communicative gemstone with a touch of enchantment.
Important Note on Plating: AB Rainbow Plated Multicolor Amazonite features genuine natural amazonite with an applied electroplated rainbow finish. This treatment enhances the stone's natural beauty and creates the spectacular color-shifting effect.

💚💙✨ What is AB Rainbow Plated Multicolor Amazonite?
This stunning bead combines two beautiful elements: genuine natural multicolor amazonite and an advanced AB (Aurora Borealis) rainbow electroplating finish.
About Multicolor Amazonite:
Amazonite is a variety of feldspar (microcline) prized for its beautiful blue-green colors, which range from soft mint and seafoam to vibrant teal and robin's egg blue. The multicolor variety features a stunning range of these hues within a single strand, often accompanied by natural white veining, cream speckles, or a subtle shimmering schiller effect. Amazonite is known as the "Stone of Courage and Truth" and is strongly associated with the throat chakra.
About AB Rainbow Plating:
AB (Aurora Borealis) plating is an electroplating process that applies a microscopic thin film to the surface of the stone. This film creates an iridescent, rainbow-colored effect that shifts and changes as the bead moves – resembling the northern lights. The plating is named after the Aurora Borealis due to its colorful, shimmering appearance.
Natural Multicolor Amazonite vs. AB Rainbow Plated Multicolor Amazonite:
| Feature | Natural Multicolor Amazonite | AB Rainbow Plated Multicolor Amazonite |
|---|---|---|
| Body Colors | Mint, teal, seafoam, robin's egg blue | Mint, teal, seafoam, robin's egg blue |
| Natural Features | White veining, schiller shimmer | White veining, schiller shimmer |
| Plated Effect | None | Rainbow iridescent shimmer |
| Overall Look | Serene, earthy, natural | Serene + magical, dazzling |
| Best For | Everyday, communication, boho | Statement, celebration, magic |
Why 128 Facets?
Standard faceted beads typically have 16 or 32 facets. Our 128-facet beads feature precision-cut angles that dramatically increase light reflection, creating exceptional brilliance – while also maximizing the rainbow plating effect, making the colors appear more vibrant and dynamic.
Important Care Reminder:
AB rainbow plating is a surface treatment. To preserve the finish, avoid water, ultrasonic cleaners, and harsh chemicals. Clean with a soft, dry cloth only. With proper care, the rainbow effect will remain vibrant for years. Amazonite is moderately durable (Mohs 6-6.5), but the plated finish requires gentle handling.
Perfect for Throat Chakra and Boho Jewelry:
The combination of amazonite's calming blue-green tones and rainbow iridescence makes these beads perfect for throat chakra designs, communication-themed pieces, beach and ocean-inspired jewelry, bohemian styles, and any project needing a serene yet magical touch.
