Where do these equivalents come from?

Neither Nabbi nor Artkal S publishes a table from one to the other: each equivalent is the Artkal S bead whose screen color is closest, measured with the ΔE2000 difference.

The other 30 get the Artkal S bead closest on screen. 23 of the 30 equivalents have a difference below 5, which is very close. The Stixiva workshop makes the same choice when you switch a whole pattern from Nabbi to Artkal S.

Another question? Write to contact@stixiva.com.

Is the Nabbi to Artkal S conversion exact?

No: two brands never have exactly the same shades. Neither brand publishes a table to the other, so we give the Artkal S bead closest on screen, with the ΔE2000 difference (below 2 is barely visible; above 10 the difference shows).

How do I convert a whole list of Nabbi beads to Artkal S?

Search this chart one number at a time. In the Stixiva workshop, « Changer de marque » (change brand) converts every bead of a pattern from Nabbi to Artkal S at once. The Stixiva workshop itself is in French for now; the English interface is on its way.

Are the colors on screen accurate?

They are approximate display colors. Always compare with a real bead before buying, especially for a large background.

Switch a whole pattern to Artkal S

In the workshop, one click converts every bead of a pattern from Nabbi to Artkal S and updates the shopping list.
