The Art of Rhinestone Jewelry by Satellite Paris
The Different Types of Rhinestones and Crystals
Rhinestone jewelry appeared in the 18th century as an affordable alternative to diamonds. Today, techniques have evolved significantly. From multicolored rhinestones to sparkling transparent crystals, the choice is vast.
Our Parisian collections are set with rhinestones and faceted crystals carefully selected and assembled by our artisan jewelers. We use Prestige crystals, choosing and matching the shades with care. Monochrome, gradients, or kaleidoscopic multicolored creations: our house imagines unique combinations for characterful costume jewelry.
The shapes and colors of our faceted crystals are inspired by precious stones. Ruby red, emerald green, or sapphire blue: our crystal cabochons are faceted like jewels! Some allow light to pass through while others display deeper shades. For our Soleil sleeper earrings, our workshop has faceted the crystal by cutting it in emerald shape.
The Handcrafted Production of Our Rhinestone Jewelry
Our rhinestone sets are designed in Paris by our in-house creators. These sparkling pieces are then handcrafted thanks to the expertise of Satellite Paris jewelers. The setting of crystals and rhinestones is a crucial step for high-quality costume jewelry. Precision and patience ensure a quality setting for jewelry that will stand the test of time without losing its shine.
By combining crystals and rhinestones with noble materials typical of our collections (hard stones, iridescent river pearls, feathers, or gold-plated metal), we bring bold rhinestone jewelry to life. By playing with light, our rhinestones and crystals have the power to reveal the beauty of these prestigious components and highlight their nuances and textures.
How to Care for Rhinestone Jewelry?
Are you wondering how to clean your crystal jewelry? Preserve and revive the shine of your rhinestone jewelry by gently wiping it with a dry cloth.
Always take care of your costume jewelry by storing it in its pouch or in a jewelry box large enough to prevent your crystal and rhinestone pieces from scratching against each other. Put on your jewelry after getting dressed and take it off before undressing to avoid snagging.
