Yes\u2026 It has already been over 60 years since the birth of the much-loved flower child that arose from the well-inspired Swarovski-Dior fusion, back in the mid \u201850s.<\/p>\n

\n

I find it fascinating how after all these years, Aurora Borealis<\/a> is still the most wanted crystal of all time, in spite of the everchanging nature of the world of fashion. Of course, the hype around this beauty is understandable, considering that for the first time, a jewelry manufacturer created something so complex that it could be compared to the mesmerizing Northern Lights.<\/p>\n

The fusion was proven to be one of the best ideas both of the companies could ever think of, since the crystal took over the fashion stage in a big way ever since. With Dior\u2019s creative vision and Swarovski\u2019s technology and experience, they were able to create a special type of metal, a micro-thin layer of vaporized blue metal to be specific, in which they then coated the lower facets of the crystal. This is what made the crystals both translucent and rainbow-hued at the same time and gave us that holographic-like effect we all love.<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s not just the undoubtable beauty of it that makes us want this crystal over and over again, be it in the form of everyday bracelets and the simplest studs, or as fabulous neckpieces and even coated on clutches or shoes. It is the versatility and freedom of choice that this particular piece gives that made Aurora Borealis the fashion phenomenon it is today. The fact that the facets pick up any surrounding colors, making the crystal shine in every color of the rainbow and giving a new dimension in every angle, is what really makes this piece the favorite choice for any outfit, from day-to-day wear, to glamorous occasions. More than that, not only is it versatile to the customer to glam up virtually any look, but it is also versatile to the jewelry manufacturer himself. The creator is capable of designing whatever his heart desires using the Aurora Borealis effect, this is why Reinhard Seufert ended up in the Guinness Book of World Records in 1985, when he conceived his crystal-embellished dance shoes, alongside with other just as sparkling items. The intensity and yet simplicity of the effect makes it a great choice for any kind of creation, encouraging the creative process and making it easy to find inspiration for the design as a whole.<\/p>\n

Though the crystal used to be something worn mostly by famous couturiers of the time, by countesses or by the stars of Paris\u2019 Th\u00e9\u00e2tre des Vari\u00e9t\u00e9s<\/a> (not only in the classic form of jewelry, but also directly embellished on the costumes they wore), today, lucky for us, any of us can get our hands on, let\u2019s say, a beautiful pair of Aurora Borealis earrings, or a simple pendant to make us feel just a little more glamorous when we hit the town, or even when we go to that business meeting we hate. There\u2019s no frowny face Aurora Borealis can\u2019t brighten.<\/p>\n

Nowadays, the crystal is featured in many collections of contemporary, well known brands, like Escada<\/a>, but also in other, more affordable forms, so that every woman could have the chance to enjoy the full color spectrum all at once. Aurora Borealis truly is the crystal that enlightened the fashion world, both metaphorically and literally speaking.<\/p>\n
