We’ve launched a beautiful selection of new Swarovski from their new Fall/Winter 2019/2020 Innovation: Be Yourself. Our first selection consists of new Crystal Shimmer and Amethyst Shimmer bicone crystals, and Crystal Iridescent Tahitian Look Pearl. Plus, we have two lovely jewelry pieces to compliment the hues of these new Swarovski.

Passion Pearl Wrap Bracelet

In this three -wrap bracelet, we used Griffin Silk Cord knotted with Tahitian Look Pearls, Amethyst Shimmer bicone crystals and 6mm Labradorite round beads with size 8/0 gold seed beads. Plus, we finished up this piece with gold findings.
