Why did we choose Preciosa Fire Polished beads for this necklace design versus Swarovski crystals?
You may have noticed that we use Swarovski crystal beads for most of our jewelry designs and you could be wondering
why we chose Preciosa fire-polished beads for this Convertible necklace design.
A Preciosa fire-polished bead has a smooth and natural/earthy look and feel versus the intense surface reflections of a
Swarovski/Austrian machine-polished bead. In some cases you want the Swarovski "look" such as when choosing bridal
jewelry but in other types of jewelry you may desire a more natural/earthy look and feel to the necklace design. We are
trying to acheive that "earthy" feel with this necklace design.
Preciosa fire-polished beads are machine faceted, then polished by glazing inside a red-hot oven. It is this heat polishing
process that gives them their soft glow and glistening colors. Slight imperfections are to be expected and add to the allure
of these much sought after beads. We felt this style of bead would be a better fit for this necklace design.
Preciosa has been producing heat polished facet cut beads to meet the highest quality and consistency standards for
over 50 years. Preciosa fire-polished beads have an unmistakable appearance in that their center is a reflection of the fire
that helped create them.
