Limited time only - This stunning color chart, featuring Swarovski's Classic and Exclusive colors, is a must-have for anyone
making or selling jewelry with Swarovski Crystal Beads. Along with its
brilliant display of color, it also features an example of the

Medium, etc. This color chart features a sample of the colors
using authentic Swarovski 4mm bicones with and without an AB finish,
all attached to a well constructed hard backing. It is equipped
with a hanger on the back for wall mounting as well as an easel back
so that it easily stands up. There is no substitute for being able to
see the crystal colors in person. Take this chart along to your jewelry
parties to show clients more choices. It makes an impressive
and dazzling display on your jewelry table. Bridal jewelry designers
will love how they will be able to match the correct crystal colors to
the bridal party's exact specifications. Please note that the chart has
