Swarovski Crystal Beads
Swarovski Crystal Beads are precision-cut crystal components with holes for stringing, beading, wirework and other hand-application techniques. Swarovski uses rounded hole edges to reduce abrasion on thread, while the available shapes and cuts allow beads to function as both structural and decorative elements in jewelry and accessories.

Choosing Swarovski Crystal Beads for Stringing and Beadwork
The hole is a functional part of the bead, not just a product detail. When comparing Swarovski bead sizes, thread, cord or wire must suit the hole diameter and the intended construction, especially when a design passes material through the bead more than once or combines beads with findings. Swarovski bead colors and effects should be matched to the exact article and size. Swarovski® Crystal Beads are made in Austria. Swarovski describes its current Advanced Crystal components as lead-free; for older articles, verify the material specification when compliance matters.
Crystal Beads or Crystal Pearls?
Swarovski Beads are cut crystal components designed to show faceting and optical effects. Swarovski Crystal Pearls use a smooth pearl coating over a crystal core. The two families can be combined in one design, but they create different surface character and should not be treated as variants of the same product.
