Where Swarovski Crystal started
One of the oldest crystal brands still on the market today, founder Daniel Swarovski’s mastery of crystal cutting has defined the company since 1895. His enduring passion for innovation and design has made it one of the world’s premier jewellery, crystal and accessory brands, with the family carrying on the tradition of providing sparkling crystal decorations and figurines to people everywhere. Daniel Swarovski's vision prompted him to invent an electric machine to cut crystal more accurately than ever before, enabling the creations of stunnng faceted crystal designs.
Who is behind Swarovski Crystal?
After its inception by Daniel Swarovski, the brand is carried on today by members of the Swarovski family. Inspired by decades of collaboration with prominent designers, the Swarovski family opened its first boutique in the 1980s, featuring Swarovski Jewellery and collectible crystal figurines and Christmas decorations. But even earlier than that, crystal souvenirs were created for the XII Winter Olympic Games in Innsbruck in 1976, which were the beginnings of the commercialisation of crystal decorations and figurines. A Swarovski employee glued together several chandelier pieces to form a tiny mouse, laying the foundation for the iconic figurines that fascinate a large community of fans worldwide today.
What is unique about Swarovski?
Swarovski really is a one and only. One of the oldest crystal manufacturers still on the market today, the unmistakeable sparkle of Swarovski crystal brings light to any home. The speed at which new designs are produced means that certain piece can be in high demand, and once they are sold out they are no longer available on the crystal market. Swarovski Crystal figurines and decorations are extremely popular and remain unique in the market. New cuts, shades and sizes of Swarovski Crystal are conceived daily at the Wattens headquarters, pushing the boundaries of Crystal design, whilst new crystal decorations are being created on a regular basis, reflecting themes such as nature, animals, Disney characters, zodiacs, friendships and much more.
