An exercise in technical perfection, Swarovski crystal has been manufactured in the Austrian Alps since the late 19th century. The building in which it is manufactured is heavily guarded to protect the company's trade secrets. Clear as spring water and entirely free of internal flaws, Swarovski is considered the finest crystal in the world and is characterized by razor-sharp facets, outstanding clarity, rich saturated colors and spectacular prismatic brilliance.
The end of each of these hair pins is adorned with an extremely rare vintage Swarovski Sun Aurora Borealis bicone crystal, nestled into a gold plated bell bead cap. A vintage Swarovski Jonquil Aurora Borealis bicone crystal occupies the center position. A bicolor fire opal crackle glass cushion bead, topped with a gold plated bell bead cap, sits below. Gold plated heishi beads complete the hair jewelry design. The hair sticks are hand carved bone finished in ultra pearlescent gossamer swirls of sun orange and jonquil yellow under layers of protective clear enamel. These one-of-a-kind hair accessories measure 5 7/8" from end to end.
