Crystal has always been an obsession of mine. The varied colors caught by the rays of sunlight coming through the window bouncing off a crystal decanter or vase amaze and astound me. The name crystal was taken from the Greek word krystallos which means clear ice. A current belief claims that crystals have a calming and healing factor when worn. I don't know if that is true or not, but I will say gazing upon, or wearing, one of these beautifully cut stones makes me feel calmer, and therefore I suppose healthier.
The pearls used in the jewerly come from China, and they have their own jewelry designers. They feature freshwater and Akoy pearls, and all jewelry products are almost all handmade. Each piece of the Kensington crystal is skillfully hand cut & polished to create the finest faceted crystal.
The presence of lead oxide in crystal not only softens the glass, dramatically increases the weight, and improves the clarity, but also increases the light diffraction. Lead crystal is a bit more expensive, but when you see it's lovely essence you'll understand why.
To me crystal has always been a beautiful show of elegance. Whether it be crystal glasses, bowls, coasters, crystal jewelry with exquisite pearls, etc. they are an exotic and refined show of beauty.
I sincerely hope you will find the exact right piece for whomever you wish to purchase it for or perhaps more importantly yourself. Whether it be a sparkling paper weight on your desk, a dazzeling wine glass, to astounding jewelry, I know you won't be disappointed in your purchase.
Tell your family and friends about giveintoday.com. I look forward to meeting all of them.
