The kiwi was available from 1991 and 1996 and was designed by Michael Stamey. It belonged to the Endangered species collection within the Silver Crystal range. The body of the kiwi is made from clear crystal and it has black eyes. The feet and beak are made from frosted crystal. We have noted that the…

With the latest series of the Great British Bake Off now well underway, we wondered whether Kris Bear’s attempts at a pink cupcake (5004484) and a blue cupcake (5051769) would be deemed worthy of a “Hollywood Handshake”?!!

A plea for help from a collector regarding the Swarovski Goose family, which was available from 1993 to 1999 and all family members designed by Adi Stocker for the Barnyard Friends collection.

Having mentioned the Mini Mos, here’s another ever popular group. The birthstone angels were exclusively available online during 2014 (with the January one released just before the end of December 2013). Each angel measures 3.9 x 3.6 x 2.7 cm and is made from clear crystal. Every angel carries a crystal heart to represent the…
