Once again Swarovski, the world's leading brand for fine cut crystal, has come up with a selection of Christmas decorations and elegant home accessories to enhance the festive atmosphere of this special time of the year. This season, Swarovski's wide range of exquisite crystal accessories - including the perennial favorite Christmas Ornament, first introduced in 1991, and a line of crystal tree decorations - sees the addition of two special new items: a Christmas Tree Topper in chrome or gold and a Little Star add the finishing touch to the Christmas tree decorations. New, too, are the Cocktail, Red and White Wine Glasses for the elegant Christmas dinner table.

Each year, the range of decorative crystal accessories is augmented by a number of new tree decorations and Christmas gift ideas. For many people Christmas tree decorations are part of a cherished family treasure to which they add a few select pieces each year. In 2003 Swarovski's contribution to this custom takes the form of the 13th piece in the limited Annual Edition Christmas Ornament line, a tradition started by the company in 1991. But the crowning glory of this year's collection is most definitely the Christmas Tree Topper: a precious crystal star in the shape of a large, glittering snowflake. This attractive product is made of top-quality cut crystal combined with metal parts in a choice of rhodium or gold plating. The Annual Edition Christmas Ornament and the Tree Topper are accompanied by filigree, elegant Little Stars which can be fastened to the tree with blue ribbons.
