7 Decorative Crystal Gifts for Home this Holiday

It’s been more than 125-years since Daniel Swarovski first mastered the art of crystal cutting and the brand has been offering the most sought-after and longed for holiday gifts since. For many, these pieces are simply an annual reference point for the holidays, and for others, a luxurious focal point of any room. Innovation and design have poised Swarovski as one of the world’s premier jewellery and accessory brands, and today, the family carries on the tradition of delivering extraordinary holiday styles to men and women around the world.

When briefly taking a glance at the brand’s history you find decades of evidence for their innovation and strategy. Creating the first ‘diamond for everyone’ in 1891, to opening their first boutique in the 1980s where it coined a fascination for the crystal figurines that make up the limited-edition Christmas collection today. The brand has stood the test of time and equipped everything from American Jazz Halls to Parisian couture houses along the way.

7 Decorative Crystal Gifts for Home this Holidays

The Swarovski Holiday Collection is a traditional Christmas gift that needs no introduction. It was Daniel Swarovski’s vision to create a diamond for everyone, and by infusing this creative process with a trend-focused and meaningful story within each and every piece a yearly tradition was born.

Techniques such as Pointiage brings a luxuriously textured contrast to the highly polished crystal and offers elegance, prowess, power and an ultra-precise quality to work all done by hand. You’ll find attention to detail that ensures each piece will be made of the highest quality. Expertise is clearly infused in every piece from Swarovski and we’ve curated a selection of our favourite gifts for the holidays down below. Let’s check them out.

While he might not be riding in something as cool as the Batmobile pictured above, Superman is doing his own thing with an array of awesome coloured Swarovski crystals.
