For more than a century, Swarovski has been a standard bearer for quality jewelry. The company operated outside of the United States for most of its history and finally entered the American market in the 1970s. Since then, many domestic jewelry enthusiasts have looked to the Austrian company to provide high-quality crystal for a wide variety of fashionable jewelry.

Austrian crystal sets itself apart in a number of ways, most notably its crafting process. Workers use their ingenuity and creativity to cut hand-blown glass. Enough hard work and craftsmanship goes into Swarovski crystal bracelets to warrant a large price tag, but somehow the goods remain reasonably priced. The difference between Swarovski and other less reputable manufacturers is crystal clear.
