SWAROVSKI CRYSTAL
It may be a difficult name for most people, but however one pronounces
it, Swarovski Crystal Components, quite simply are the finest faceted crystal
beads and stones in the world. Manufactured in Wattens, Austria, since
1895, the Swarovski company has perfected its crystal products by creating
brilliantly pure crystals in an vast array of colors with precise machine-cut
faceting.
The Swarovski name has since become synonymous with high fashion. In 1955,
a collaboration with Christian Dior led to the creation of the aurora borealis
(AB) crystal effect. Coating the crystal with a special, reflective foil
gives the crystal extra sparkle and a pastel effect.
In the 1990’s and 2000’s jewelry containing Swarovski Crystal
Components was seen everywhere, accenting everyday fashion jewelry pieces,
adding drama to evening designs, as well as creating “Best Dressed” couture
statements for Hollywood celebrities.
The real beauty of Swarovski crystal jewelry is in its magical ability
to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary. Its uses and applications
are endless, and the results are beautiful. For these reasons, Swarovski
Components remain essential to the designs within CJ Sardi.
