There are many types of crystals available, but nothing sparkles like a Swarovski.  Even an unexperienced eye can look and see the difference with the naked eye.  Swarovski Crystals were developed by Daniel Swarovski.  Born to a glass cutter in North Bohemia, today part of the Czech Republic, Daniel completed a two-year apprenticeship in his fathers small factory.  In 1892, Daniel invented a machine that revolutionized the process of crystal cutting.  He filed for patents and founded his own company in 1895.  In a hunt for water, power, a factory building, and a desire to keep his inventions a secret Daniel moved his business to Wattens, Tyrol.  It still resides there to this day and is run by the Swarovski family.

 

Swarovski crystals are worth the price! They retain their clarity and sparkle, are available in countless sizes, colors, and shapes.  With the introduction of their Crystallized collection, you can now find almost anything you would desire.
