Swarovski recently released the Twist Pendant and matching Twist Beads as part of their Fall new product release. We wanted to show a sample using the Swarovski Twist Pendant.

This piece is made with a Swarovski Twist Pendant centerpiece on rattail cord with a drop knot. The cord is trimmed with Greek Ceramic bead, knotted onto a lobster claw on one side and knotted into a chain extension embellished with an antique copper heart leaf charm.

OhioBeads and Gems has the Twist Pendant in four colors: Crystal, Crystal Copper, Crystal Golden Shadow and Crystal Silver Shade. Matching Twist Beads are available in Crystal Copper, Crystal Silver Shade and Crystal Golden Shadow.
