The size ss19 (4.4-4.6mm) chaton is used in the
Montage Clasp  which requires 2, plus others.
Article 1028 is the modern "Xilion" facet style. Article 1012 is the faceting style that immediately preceded the Xilion faceting style. Article 1100 is an older, vintage faceting style. We have line drawings of the Article 1028 and Article 1012:
 
Article 1028 Article 1012
(Sorry, we have no drawing of Article 1100, but it is more similar to 1012 than to 1028)
A careful inspection of the two will reveal subtle differences in the faceting style. The new Article 1028 Xilion cut both reflects and refracts better than previous styles, and Mimi recommends it for use particularly in any jewelry that will be photographed, such as wedding jewelry. All styles would make a beautiful addition to any piece.
These stones are available individually or at a discounted price for a pack of 10. Buy just what you need for a project, or buy an assortment to have on hand. The choice is yours at Mimi's Gems!
