What you'll find in this collection
Our Swarovski beads and charms collection brings together the loose crystal components most loved by jewellery makers, dressmakers and crafters. Bicone beads make up the bulk of the range, alongside a selection of genuine Swarovski crystal charms. Here is a quick guide to what sits in the collection and what each type is best for.
Swarovski bicone beads
The heart of the collection and the most popular Swarovski bead shape by far. The double-cone cut catches the light from every angle, which makes bicones a go-to for bracelets, earrings, spacer accents and beadweaving. They come in a huge spread of colours and coatings, from classic Clear and Clear AB to rich jewel tones. If you’re looking for maximum sparkle, start here.
Swarovski crystal charms
Alongside the beads, you will find a range of genuine Swarovski crystal charms ready to add a finishing flourish to your designs. These charm pieces are ready to attach to a necklace, bracelet or a pair of statement earrings using your own findings. Current styles include:
- Cluster charms, sold in pairs, for a bold multi-crystal sparkle that works beautifully as earring drops.
- Rose charms, delicate crystal flower shapes that bring a pretty, feminine touch to any piece.
- Bow charms, sold in pairs, a timeless motif that adds a touch of elegance to earrings and bracelets alike.
Colours and finishes vary, from dramatic Silver Night to Clear with gold detailing, so there is something to suit every design. For more shapes to hang, our Swarovski pendants make lovely charms too, including hearts, crosses and snowflakes.
Why choose genuine Swarovski
- Unrivalled sparkle: Swarovski's precision machine cutting is what gives the crystal its signature brilliance, something cheaper glass simply cannot match.
- True colour and consistency: Every bead in a colourway matches, so your finished piece looks polished and professional.
- A name people know: Swarovski carries instant prestige, which matters if you sell your jewellery or are making a piece for a special occasion.
- Collectable and increasingly rare: With Swarovski scaling back its loose component range, genuine Swarovski beads are becoming harder to find, so this collection is worth a look while stock lasts.
Perfect for every kind of maker
- Jewellery makers building bracelets, necklaces and earrings who want a premium finish.
- Dressmakers and costumiers adding beaded detail and sparkle to garments, dance costumes and bridalwear.
- Crafters and hobbyists creating personalised gifts and keepsakes with a bit of luxury.
- Sellers and small makers who want the Swarovski name to lift the value of their finished pieces.

Looking for an in-stock alternative
Because genuine Swarovski components are being discontinued, some pieces sell out for good. The good news is you do not have to lose the sparkle. Our Preciosa bicone beads offer beautiful Czech-made crystal at excellent value, and our own Zodiac range delivers brilliant shine at a fraction of the cost. Both are fully stocked and make a fantastic swap for any Swarovski design. Drop us a message and we will point you to the closest match.
