What are Austrian Crystals?
Until 2021, we purchased our Austrian Crystals from the famous company that used to sell to artisans. Click to read more about why we had to re-name our beads.
More Details
This Austrian Crystal Rosary glistens in the light. It is a less costly Swarovski Crystal rosary. You might find that the bicone shape of the beads slides easily between your fingers during prayer. Sterling-silver-filled means that the brass core has a thick Sterling Silver plating. We are happy with the quality because if you examine the cut ends, you will have difficulty finding any brass inside. The Crucifix and center are solid sterling silver. They are cast from vintage pieces. The rosary is wire-wrapped and connected with bows.

What Makes Them Sparkle?
Swarovski Crystals glisten and catch the eye in the stores as we walk past them. Although their lighting helps, it takes very little light can make these beads throw off flashes of light.
The End of an Era
In 2021, they announced a major plan to restructure their company. Selling their beads to crafters have become a thing of the past. They no longer want their brand associated with anything less than the best quality.
Will There Be More of These Rosaries?
You can still look forward to more of our rosaries made with these beads. They will be available for as long as our supplies last. However, we will now be selling them under the name “Austrian Crystal” rosaries.
