Swarovski Crystals
Written by Qiana Spellman

When Daniel Swarovski founded Swarovski, I wonder if he envisioned the endless possibilities of creativity the line would take on.  With the introduction of its newest collections, “Sands of Time” and “Love & Light - -The Bridal Collection,” Swarovski (Spring-Summer 2007) takes this haute couture line to boundless heights.  Encompassing earth and fairytales, Swarovski allows its consumers to enjoy the ultimate crystal experience.

“Sands of Time”- Swarovski Accessories Collection employs combinations of shapes and colors inspired by nature.  The four elements of Earth, Air, Fire, and Water are intertwined to present an organic variety of cultural motifs.  All Swarovski pieces are hand crafted, using real skins and secret techniques.  The collection is adorned with semi-precious stones, earth-coloured pearls, wooden beads, and clear and colored crystals.  Accessories, such as, necklaces, brooches, bracelets, rings, pendants, earrings, watches, and evening bags burst with power and femininity.  Crystal animal figurines posed on granite bases embody the Soulmate Collection, displaying Swarovski’s devotion to nature. 

“Love & Light - - The Bridal Collection” embraces the fairytale wedding.  The line presents its bride with delicate crystal tiaras, an entire line of crystal wings accessories, hair combs and pins.  Awaiting the groom are crystalline cufflinks and tie pins.  Swarovski Home Décor offers crystal champagne flutes, vases, and picture frames to celebrate the unforgettable event.  This collection evokes the sophistication and timelessness surrounding the union of marriage.
