| Throughout the 20th Century, the United States has imported jewelry from Austria, as it is a major source of Rhinestones and Crystal beads. Swarovski Corporation is one of our biggest suppliers. The common jewelry you'll find today from Austria consists of Rhinestone jewelry, Austrian Glass beads and cut Crystal jewelry. Enamel work frequently accented a lot of the jewelry and most of this type of jewelry is above average quality made using their top quality rhinestones.
