Marvel and Swarovski have worked together to release a brand-new jewellery and home collection that is inspired by a feeling of heroism and self-discovery. Each item draws inspiration from a well-known Marvel comic book character and is expertly crafted and meticulously rendered. Swarovski's expert cutting perfectly captures each superhero's recognisable appearance from every aspect.
This is the first time that Swarovski and Marvel have worked together. The collaboration genuinely embraces the strength and beauty of crystal in new and surprising ways by drawing on the 84-year tradition of Marvel and the ways in which Marvel heroes inspire people all over the world to uncover the hero within themselves.
Swarovski Creative Director, Giovanna Engelbert, said, “Stan Lee was a master storyteller. He has given the world some incredibly influential and exciting Super Hero's and so it has been a genuine honour to delve into these Marvel favourites and express their individual qualities with our crystals.”
Swarovski has created eight jewellery pieces, five crystal figurine collectables, and a set of stickers inspired by the Marvel Super Heroes: Spider-Man, Black Panther, Captain Marvel, Iron Man, and the Hulk.
Spider-Man
Spider-Man's iconic mask is featured in bracelet and pendant forms with artfully arranged red and black precision-cut crystal pave. Two Spider-Man crystal figurine collectables in blue and red enter the collection, with one featuring 955 facets, showing the Super Hero in a web-slinging pose, and another made from 36,500 glittering crystals that capture Spider-Man in an iconic upside-down pose on a New York City streetlamp. This limited-edition piece takes 243 hours to complete.
Black Panther
In tribute to the King of Wakanda, an array of crystallised Black Panther jewellery evokes the Wakandan spirit of innovation, including a vibrant motif ring, a life-like 3D pendant set on a long chain, and a mask-inspired pendant adorned in purple crystals. A sleek Black Panther crystal figurine collectable wears his legendary vibranium suit in a design that is expertly crafted from 649 facets.
Captain Marvel
Female empowerment is celebrated through a dazzling multicoloured ring depicting Captain Marvel's iconic emblem of cosmic power, courage and light. Ready for take-off, Captain Marvel is depicted as a limited-edition crystal figurine collectable made from 10,000 crystals.
Iron Man
A versatile jewellery piece that doubles as a 3D pendant and brooch channels Iron Man's inspiring energy, while an Iron Man crystal figurine collectable, cut with 723 facets, brings the character to life at a level of innovative artistry that Tony Stark would be proud of.
Hulk
The Hulk smashes into the collection with a fiery fist of green crystals set on a gold-tone plated bracelet, while the Hulk crystal figurine collectable reveals the exact details of the character's signature muscles and awesome strength, expertly cut from 578 facets.
