So Sad, my mum adored her Swarovski collection, but she got advanced Alzheimers, and one day she put them all into the dishwasher ‘to make them shiny’. Fortunately she had forgotten she had put them there so never saw the result – parts disconnected and some parts I never found. At least crystal is strong so no breakages, and yes they were shiny. As for the boxes she meticulously collected, I couldn’t find those either.
I am now listing the pieces that have been repaired and those with missing parts. I have spent a long time trying different repair methods so that someone else could get the same joy from them that mum once did (Lockdown was useful for something). There may be glue marks I have missed when cleaning.
It is important that these are unpacked and handled carefully, and if a part should come loose when unpacking or cleaning, I recommend Loctite Super Glue for Glass (see photo) available from Bunnings which is recommended for crystal – although nothing seems to be a strong as the glue Swarovski use. I use a wooden toothpick to clean off excess glue after it has set.
I have purchased some boxes from Crystal Lodge to be able to transport them safely. Each box will have a label showing all the details of the item.
You will find a logo mark on almost all Swarovski crystal products:
the edelweiss flower was used from 1899 to 1988.
the square SC logo, or block
logo, was used from 1976 to 1988.
the swan logo mark was adopted
in 1989 and is still used today.
Wonderful gift for a Collector
