Swarovski Crystal 2011/2012 Spring Collection (4/6/2011)
2011 April 6
There’s just nothing better than new Swarovski crystals! New shapes, new colors – maybe your bead store already has some of these in stock!
New Swarovski Colors and Effects
 |
This is a new effect called Amethyst Blend. The purple color fades to a light amethyst color within the crystal. The gradient direction does not seem to be fixed for each shape, so it looks very fluid and organic. |
 |
Chrysolite Opal is a pretty light green. The translucent soft green crystals will work great in romantic spring pieces as well as cool summer pieces. |
 |
This great new metallic color is Crystal Bronze Shade. It would be great as a neutral color to add to many projects – I’m thinking Steampunk, too. |
 |
Here’s another blend color: Topaz Blend. It has a very rich look and will be great to add with copper or gold findings. |
 |
What a great romantic color for pearls. It’s Crystal Vintage Gold pearls. This will be great to add to filigree – especially Vintaj – for a classic Victorian look. |
New Swarovski Bead Shapes
 |
The BeCharmed Briolette bead 5940, another big hole bead, a Briolette cut, officially. |
 |
This is BeCharmed Helix bead 5290. Swarovski beads with big holes and stainless steel centers, which should fit on Pandora bracelets and other similar products. |
 |
This is the Stairway Bead 5624. It’s supposed to resemble a stairway to a stage, but it’s sort of like a half cube. I’ve already used one of these in a ring. |
 |
This is a Star Flatback (2816). Talk about your bling! |
New Swarovski Pendants
 |
This is the Crazy 4 U Heart pendant (6260). I like the number and direction of cuts in this crystal. |
 |
Here is the Devoted 2 U Heart pendant (6261). It’s modern looking, assymmetrical and I think it’s cool. |
 |
The Forever 1 Heart (6263) has a matte line down the middle that makes it looks like a broken heart, but it’s supposed to resemble two hearts glued together. |
 |
The Miss You Heart (6262) would be great to hang on just a ribbon, silk cord or chain. |
 |
The Truly in Love Heart (6264) is really cute. This would be good for a younger person or in a simple design. |
 |
Organic Cosmic Triangle (4736) would also be great to hang on just a ribbon, silk cord or chain. |
