The magnificent colors and sparkle of these crystals bestow enchanting elegance upon any jewelry piece. Austria's world-famous Swarovski brand has been the original crystal pedigree for more than a century. Their outstanding quality is the result of special polishing, perfect cut, exact geometry and precise angles, which draw out maximum brilliance. **These are real Swarovski® Crystal Pendants and not replicas***Swarovski uses machinery that precisely cuts each crystal. According to Swarovski, "cutting hard materials such as crystal and gems, in such a way that they have a hundred identical facets in several directions, is a very complicated task; each direction of the reflected light must first be calculated by computer, then this has to be simulated in 3D, optimized and finally converted into control programs for complex machinery." This is just part of the technology that gives Swarovski crystals their unbelievable flash.
