Question? " Can you tell the difference between Swarovski Crystal Flatbacks and Costume Jewelry made with Rhinestones.?"
Swarovski is the luxury brand name for the range of precision-cut lead crystal glass and related products produced by
companies owned by Swarovski AG of Feldmeilen, near Zürich, Switzerland. Swarovski crystal contains approximately
32% lead to maximize refraction. A Rhinestone or paste or diamante is a diamond simulant made from rocks, glass or acrylic. Originally, rhinestones
were rock crystals gathered from the river Rhine. The availability was greatly increased when around 1775 the Alsatian
jeweller Georg Friedrich Strass had the idea to imitate diamonds by coating the lower side of glass with metal powder.
