All the seed beads you could possibly need! Swarovski crystals in amazing colours Beading Supplies
Swarovski Finishes

We stock a fantastic variety of Swarovski crytals. They come in an amazing (and sometimes confusing!) range of finishes.

Here's a quick guide to the finishes available.

AB or Aurora Boreallis - this is a coating on the outside of the crystal which reflects light and can create a rainbow effect.

AB 2X - this is the same effect as above, but with twice the coating, and giving it a stronger effect.

CAL or Comet Argent Light - this is a half silver and half normal crystal colour effect.

SATIN - this is not an outer coating, but a process which gives the original crystal colour a richer deeper colour.

DORADO - this is a half gold and half normal crystal colour effect.

Swarovski also supply some of their crystals with combinations of the above effects.
