In 1895, Daniel Swarovski, a Bohemian inventor and visionary, moved to the village of Wattens in the Austrian Tyrol with his new invention designed to cut and polish crystals for jewelry. From this humble beginning Swarovski has grown to become the world's leading producer of precision crystal for fashion, jewelery and, more recently, lighting, architecture and interiors.

Today, the company, still family owned and run by 5th generation family members, has supplied the fine jewelry industry with precision cut handmade crystals and genuine gemstones. Highlighting the creativity that lies at the heart of the company, Swarovski's own-brand lines of accessories, jewelry and home décor items are sold through more than 2,200 retail outlets worldwide.
