What crystals do you use?
We use Preciosa® crystals exclusively, as we have a contract ensuring their use. These crystals are made from natural Bohemian sand rich in silicon-oxide, making them the finest lead-free crystals available. They are precisely cut for maximum sparkle, far superior to cheaper rhinestones.
Previously, we used SWAROVSKI® crystals, but due to SWAROVSKI® closing its Branding Partner and Wholesale accounts in Australia in October 2020, we could no longer reliably source the necessary colours. This led us to switch to Preciosa®, which now offers the highest quality crystals on the market.
