The uncompromising high standards of the Swarovski beads has made them the high benchmark against which all other beads are compared. Swarovski is the world's undisputed leading manufacturer and supplier of brilliant cut crystals. Its uncompromising high quality has been lavishly used in the famous creations of fashion luminaries such as Coco Chanel, Elsa Schiaparelli, Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Valentino and Roberto Cavalli, and many other top designers around the world.
Daniel Swarovski was the founder of the company over a 100 years ago and his philosophy in product perfection, innovation, leading-edge research, creativity are continued in the company's line of diverse products today.
Swarovski products cover a full gamut of high quality items. In the jewelry making world, it is best known for its superb Crystal beads, followed closely by its array of Pearl beads.

To buy Swarovski crystal and findings, why not pop over to my Clearly Chosen Swarovski Store. As a Swarovski authorized dealer (wholesale/retail), I can help you either search for and/or order in for you the Swarovski you need to find. Feel free to use the free Library here to research for some of the hard-to-find Swarovski crystals.
Or Contact Me (new window) - please give me as much specifics as you can when enquiring after Swarovski, e.g. code number, size, color, effect.
Please note: apart from what is already in store, I deal mainly in Bulk Packs (¼ of full pack) or Full Packs (full factory packs), direct from Swarovski, Austria).
Despite it comparative cost, Swarovski crystals remain unrivalled in their popularity as generation after generation look to Swarovski for perfection in cut & shine. The lead content (about 32% to maximise light refraction), which gives crystals their sparkle, is usually higher than in any other crystals offered, giving it the AAA quality.
