"That we find a crystal or a poppy beautiful means that we are less alone, the we are more deeply inserted into existence than the course of a single life would lead us to believe."
- John Berger
ABOUT THE CRYSTALS:

While collaborating in the 1950's with designer Christian Dior, Swarovski created the Aurora Borealis effect with the crystals.
