Craft crystal


Craft crystal, also known as craft quartz, is a special type of quartz crystal, mainly used to manufacture art crafts, high-end 

glasses and lighting accessories and other products.

Crystals are divided into natural and artificial crystals. Natural crystals are crystal ornaments and crafts made from raw 

materials that are naturally formed, such as those mined from nature and then artificially or mechanically processed. 

They primarily highlight their 

natural properties. Natural crystals have a density of 2.56-2.66, a hardness of approximately 7, a refractive index of 

approximately 1.55, a birefringence of 0.009, and high thermal conductivity.

This article is limited to describing the craft crystal of artificial crystal (also known as imitation crystal).

Art crystal, made primarily from crystalline glass, is a decorative craft that is crafted through a variety of manual or mechanical

 processes. 

Because it emphasizes the craftsmanship, it is called art crystal. Art crystal has a density of 2.17-3.17, a hardness of 

approximately 5.5, a refractive index of 1.47-1.70, exhibits no birefringence, and exhibits relatively low thermal conductivity.

Art crystal comes in a wide variety of colors and types, offering a wide range of uses. Its main categories include art crystal 

lighting fixtures,art crystal glass beads, art crystal diamond jewelry (rhinestones, hot-stamped diamonds, and special-shaped

 diamonds), art crystal trophiesand medals, art crystal ornaments, art crystal ashtrays, art crystal candlesticks, art crystal 

perfume bottles, and many other items.

Artisan crystal has the following characteristics:

1. High refractive index and hardness. The higher the refractive index and hardness of the raw crystal glass, the purer and more

 crystalline the finished product appears. It is also more difficult to cut and more rare.

2. Sound. When you tap an artisan crystal vessel with your hand, the sound you hear is crisp, like a lingering metallic sound, 

with a metallic "clang clang" effect. The harder the crystal, the louder the sound.

3. Luster. In sunlight, high-quality artisan crystal reflects vibrant, colorful light, with a natural and rich transition between the

 two colors.

4. Facets and engravings. For crystal diamonds, the number and smoothness of facets on a small sphere determine the 

brilliance of the reflected light. The smoother and more numerous the facets, the higher the value. For crystal glass of the 

same quality, the more intricate and detailed the carving on a small area, the higher the value.

5. Brand recognition. When choosing artisan crystal products, consider the brand, as only products from reputable factories

 can guarantee quality and technical expertise. For example, world-renowned crystal brands include Swarovski.

6. Weigh. If two items of the same size are made of crystal glass, the one made of other materials will be heavier. For example,

 one made of ordinary glass will be relatively lighter.

Currently, most domestically produced crystal glass on the market is produced in Pujiang County, Zhejiang Province. These

 crystal glass products are finely crafted, light, and elegant.

When you look up and see the luxurious and elegant crystal chandeliers radiating soft and bright light, when you wear 

gorgeous clothes and accessories inlaid with rhinestones, hot diamonds and other craft crystals, when you see the craft 

crystals in your home that bring you incomparably clean and elegant, such as vases, fruit plates and other accessories,

 and so on, this kind of quality of life, you will definitely think of the colorful and crystal clear craft crystals. Remember:

 craft crystals will always accompany your beautiful life!
