CRYSTALLIZED™ - Swarovski Elements Bicone 5301 Series Change
Swarovski recently announced that it will be changing the facet configuration for the entire 5301 bicone series. The old design will be phased out of production and replaced by a Xilion cut faceted bicone design renamed as series 5328. The bicone will be available in the exact same sizes and colours as now, but the new 5328 shape will have more sparkle and a patent-protected design that cannot be copied by imitators.
The old style 5301 bicone will not be manufactured after May 2009.
