What are Swarovski Crystals?
Swarovski crystal is a man-made form of glass that is manufactured by Swarovski in a patented process that gives a very high quality finish. In 1892, Austrian Daniel Swarovski invented an electric machine used to cut crystals with the highest possible degree of precision at the time. Swarovski uses only the finest materials and is known around the world for its brilliance and value. Crystals can be found in jewelry lines for both men and women, which include necklaces, bracelets, rings, pins, earrings, and watches. The crystals can sometimes be backed with a foil to increase their reflective properties and provide maximum brilliance.
