Crystal Wedding Jewellery – Bead or Stone?

Sunday, August 15th, 2010

Now be honest if you typed “crystal wedding jewellery” into Google what type of wedding jewellery were you expecting to find, picture A or B?

Crystal Wedding JewelleryThe bracelet in picture A is created from what I call diamantes, others may call theses rhinestones, or crystal stones,  the bracelet in picture B is created from crystal beads, however they are also just known as crystals.  If you search under “Crystal Wedding Jewellery” you’ll find both types of jewellery because both of them are referred to as crystal jewellery.

Those in picture A might not be actually be created from crystals, but could be glass or resin.  But those in B should have enough information in their product listing to name the brand of crystal that is used (mine do) as they tend to be handmade.  This means the designer should know the manufacturer of the crystal beads or at least their country of origin so there will be no doubt as whether they are true crystals.

I know exactly the type of crystal jewellery I want…..
