Frequently Asked Questions

What are Swarovski crystal pendants? ▾

Swarovski crystal pendants are precision-cut Austrian glass crystal components designed to serve as focal pieces in jewellery making. Unlike crystal beads, pendants feature a large bevelled through-hole that is specifically engineered to prevent thread fraying and allow the pendant to hang and move freely on a cord, chain or wire. They are available in nineteen distinct shapes and a wide range of sizes and colours, making them one of the most versatile jewellery making components in the Swarovski range.

What is the difference between Swarovski crystal pendants and beads? ▾

The primary difference is in the hole design and intended use. Swarovski crystal pendants have a large bevelled through-hole designed for hanging on a cord or chain as a focal piece, and are typically asymmetric or shaped to catch the light in motion. Swarovski crystal beads have a smaller, centered through-hole designed for stringing multiple beads in sequence on wire or thread. Pendants are used as single statement focal pieces; beads are used to create continuous strung designs.

What Swarovski pendant shapes are available? ▾

Swarovski crystal pendants are available in nineteen shapes for approved customers, including baroque, bicone, briolette, cross, diamond, drop, emerald-cut, flower, heart, round, pear, square, triangle and oval, plus additional specialty cuts. The most popular pendant shapes for jewellery making are drop, briolette and heart pendants, which are widely used in earrings, necklaces and charm jewellery across professional and handmade design.

Do I need to apply to buy Swarovski crystal pendants? ▾

Yes. Swarovski crystal pendants are available exclusively to approved brands, businesses and professional designers. You can complete our online application to request access. If you are not yet approved, we stock Serinity crystal pendants, Austrian-made premium pendants available immediately with no approval required.

What are Swarovski crystal pendants used for? ▾

Swarovski crystal pendants are primarily used as focal pieces in necklaces and earrings, where they hang freely and catch the light from multiple angles in motion. They are also widely used in charm bracelets, bridal jewellery, occasion accessories and bespoke handmade jewellery. Heart pendants are particularly popular for romantic and gift jewellery; briolette and drop pendants are the most popular for earrings; baroque pendants are popular for bohemian and contemporary statement designs.

Are Swarovski crystal pendants lead-free? ▾

Yes. All Swarovski crystal pendants manufactured since 2012 are fully lead-free and REACH-compliant, certified to Oekotex Standard 100 and ISO 9001. They are safe for use in professional jewellery production and consumer goods worldwide.

What thread or cord should I use with Swarovski crystal pendants? ▾

Swarovski crystal pendants feature a large bevelled through-hole designed to accommodate a wide range of threading materials. They work well on fine chains, nylon cord, leather cord, silk thread and jewellery wire. The bevelled edge of the hole prevents fraying on softer threading materials. For the most professional results, use a jump ring or bail to attach the pendant to a chain, allowing it to hang and move freely. Browse our full range of jewellery making supplies including findings, chains and wire for the right threading materials for your design.

Can Swarovski crystal pendants be combined with Swarovski beads and pearls? ▾

Yes. Swarovski crystal pendants are designed to work seamlessly alongside the full Swarovski crystal range. The most popular combinations are a pendant as the central focal piece with Swarovski crystal beads strung either side for necklaces and bracelets, or a pendant with Swarovski crystal pearls for elegant, refined bridal and occasion jewellery designs.
