Earrings, bracelets, necklaces ... I love to make them all. Swarovski® crystal beads bring sparkling colors and visual texture to my jewelry designs. Czech Republic glass beads offer rich deep colors, with individual 2-tone Czech beads often possessing unique color shading within the clear glass of the bead. For warm colors, I like to make bracelets from the natural beauty of obsidian and jasper beads. To the right of the Austrain Swarovski® crystal bead photos I have provided link to my Jewelry Design pages.

Below are photos of the Austrian crystal beads Swarovski® 5301 bicone crystals I have used in my jewelry designs.

Fire Opal

Many of the colors are slightly darker in the photos then the actual crytals. I believe the sparkle of the Austrian Swarovski crystals makes the camera's len close slightly. Also colors such as Alexandrite, Cantaloupe, Lavender change as you move them from sunlight into room light. The large photos should present a better view of the actual colors and how the light changes them.
Aurora Borealis: Named for the Northern Lights. In costume jewelry, a term for crystal stones that have a highly iridescent surface. The effect is achieved by vapor blasting the facets of the lower part of the crystals with an invisible, micro thin metal sheet. The Austrian Swarovski® crystal bead colors with AB added to the name implies one facet surface has AB finish.

Please note Swarovski® crystal tests at 21% lead.
