The collection

When asked what the greatest challenge today is to advance environmental issues, Nadja Swarovski, member of the company's board of directors, replied, "It has to be prioritized at the very top within the company, because a lack of awareness has been the greatest hurdle so far".
With this collection, Atelier Swarovski makes it clear that the company's course is clearly geared towards “Conscious Luxury” and what requires conscious action and the assumption of responsibility in the luxury industry.
