The gorgeous crystals from Austrian Swarovski are world-famous for their magic sparkling and exclusive looks. Adding glamour to all kinds of jewelry, clothes and other accessories that they’re seen on. Beautiful and well made, no other similar crystal jewelry beads can compare to Swarovskis shine.
Swarovskis founder Daniel Swarovski (1862-1956) was born to a glass cutter in the Austrian monarchy. In 1892 he patented an electric cutting machine that facilitated the production of lead crystal glass jewelry. The company has been a success ever since.

One of the wonderful features about the Swarovski crystal beads, is that they can lift your designs sky high! There are many colors and shapes to chose from which makes it easy to find the perfect match to your jewelry piece.
I use Swarovski beads especially when I want my jewelry piece look elegant. In one of my earrings made from precious metal clay, I have used mint green 4mm bicone Swarovski beads. Metal clay works well with Swarovski, I’ve seen many lovely metal clay pendants paired with a necklace of Swarovski beads.
You get the magic spark when you complete your jewelry with Swarovski crystals.
- The expensive and glamorous look is achieved by adding many crystals in different sizes.
- To get extra spark and lift your other beads, use a few Swarovski crystals here and there in your jewelry.
This austrian crystal jewelry maker has many gorgeous coatings to offer on the beads and pendants, the Purple Haze for example which gives a shimmery violet/pink spark to the surface. Coatings offer extra shine and attracts light and attention to the wearer and to the jewelry piece itself.
