Swarovski® Crystal Colors
We use genuine Swarovski (pronounced Swore-off-ski) Crystal, which are considered the finest quality, full-lead manmade crystals made today. Swarovski crystals have been produced in Austria since 1892 are regarded as the highest quality machine cut and polished crystal beads in the world.
The lead in crystal is what makes it sparkle and reflect colors. Due to a 30% lead content; Swarovski Crystals are highly refractory, which gives the crystal its extra weight, brilliance, and prismatic qualities.
Brilliant colors are added to these crystals to create beads of dazzling beauty. For a more brilliant effect, special coatings are bonded chemically to the outer surface of the beads. One of the more popular coatings is Aurora Borealis, also known as "AB", gives off a rainbow-like effect by reflecting light from surrounding colors in the environment. The special coating of each bead is permanent.
Swarovski offers a wide range fabulous colors and special coatings. The following crystal color charts list all of the beautiful Swarovksi crystal colors we use for our eaRap™ crystal jewelry. Please use these crystal color charts in making your crystal color selection.

Swarovski® Pearl Colors
We use only Swarovski Crystal Pearls, which are considered the closest imitation to natural pearls. The iridescent, mother of pearl-like coating developed by Swarovski is applied around a leaded crystal core in many layers. The innovative coating technology developed by Swarovski combined with the crystal base ensures a perfect replica of the natural pearl and gives them a luminosity similar to that of a natural pearl luster and consistency in color.
As with natural pearls, Swarovski Crystal Pearls adjust to skin temperature. When you touch natural pearls they appear as relatively cold but then they slowly warm to the skin.
These pearls are resistant to perspiration, UV rays, perfumes, scratches and will not fade.
