Crystal Bracelets
With colour and sparkle to spare, crystal beaded bracelets have transcended mere trendiness to become a modern classic. The term "crystal" applies to naturally occurring quartz stones and to specially treated and faceted glass with extra sparkle. The premier name in creating crystal magic is Swarovski; the Austrian company has been making crystals that rival gems in their beauty for over a century. Swarovski crystal bracelets are more than just jewellery; they're wearable art.
Crystals can adorn bangles and cuffs, but in their most elegantly simple form, they're strung like pearls on a single strand. The understated charm of a single-strand crystal bracelet is a natural match for an equally beautiful crystal ring. Choose a hue that complements your outfit, or wear clear crystal that catches and refracts every ray of light into a tiny rainbow of spectral colour. A single bracelet dresses up your favourite jeans; combining two or three in harmonious hues and accenting them with precious metals makes crystal beading dressy enough for an evening on the town.
Because of its effervescent sparkle, crystal makes a beautiful contrast for other materials. Smooth glass beads in rich colours take on new dazzle when scattered with points of crystalline light. Gold and silver cuffs or beaded bracelets act as miniature mirrors to amplify the scintillating light from faceted crystal. Loop strands of pale or colourless crystal beads with icy silver around your wrist; accent more vivid colours with radiant gold. The lambent glow of pearls becomes even more luminous when set with crystal stones, making pearl and crystal bracelets an exquisitely feminine option for evening.
A crystal bracelet takes on casual appeal when you pair it with fun bangles or loop a strand or two of colourful beads about your wrist. When you wear a few sparkling bracelets on your wrists, you need no other jewellery; it's the ideal choice for a carefree day at the seaside, a shopping expedition or a picnic in the park. Bead bracelets in happy colours tone down the radiance of crystal to make it right for day as well as evening wear
