SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS just introduced new products to its BECHARMED line. The products will be available to order in December. Read more about the expansion below:

BECHARMED After the successful Spring/Summer 2012 launch of BeCharmed Beads, SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS followed it in 2013/14 with a comprehensive BeCharmed assortment consisting of BeCharmed Bead, Crystal BeCharmed Pearl, and BeCharmed Rondelle. Available in a wide palette of colors and effects, all except the BeCharmed Rondelle have stainless steel inner rings embossed with the SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS branding, giving greater value to designs, together with added functionality.

BECHARMED PAVÉ Bringing yet more sparkle to the BeCharmed assortment, SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS is now launching a new collection of BeCharmed Pavé products. These elements are characterized by dazzling brilliance, thanks to the incorporation, variously, of XILION Chaton, XILION Square Fancy Stone, or Baguette Fancy Stone, and by the enhanced functionality of their logo-engraved 4.5 mm hole. Perfectly suited to necklaces, bracelets, key rings, and entire jewelry sets, they offer a variety of ways to make a style statement, and can be easily combined with the whole BeCharmed assortment.
