Dimensions: Lilac lead crystal sphere is about 30mm diameter. Chain is about 9 inches long (About 22 cms).

We say: This is not a genuine "Swarovski" lead crystal. "Swarovski" is like the "Nike" (the sportswear company) of the lead crystal world. I.e. They are like the best known brand. There are other manufacturers of lead crystal and this lilac sphere is from one of those manufacturers. The lilac is the colour of the lead crystal itself rather than a coating over the top, which I would say is preferable. So here you are getting a good quality lead crystal that gives great reflections for a little less than the brand names. Hope you enjoy it. (By Brett)

Lead Crystal - Man made, very sparkly
Lead crystals (sometimes referred to as “crystal” or “leaded glass”) reflect light in wondrous ways, often creating rainbows and sparkles on the wall when the light hits them just right. They are great for hanging in windows or anywhere the light can get to them. Many hang them up to bring more light into their lives and make their surroundings magical. Hanging crystals such as these are termed 'bright objects' in feng shui bringing positive energy into a house and can be hung in spaces that need "energising".

Lead crystal is manufactured by adding lead oxide to molten glass. It is then machine cut into shapes. The higher the lead content the greater the “refractive index”, or in other words, the greater the sparkle. As the lead content goes up it becomes harder to form the crystal and therefore the price for higher lead content also tends to be higher. The maximum lead content is about 35%.
