THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA
Swarovski plays a Leading Role in the Phantom of the Opera film. Swarovski was instrumental in creating the magnificent crystal chandelier that plays an important role in the film version of Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera filmed at Pinewood Studios, directed by Joel Schumacher, released in December 2004.
The awe-inspiring 'Hero' chandelier, 17 feet high and 13.2 feet wide, is hung with some 30,000 full cut STRASS® Swarovski crystal octagons, weighs 2.3 tons and is estimated to be worth £730,000. Swarovski jewellery stones and crystal textile applications were used by The Phantom of the Opera's costume designer Alex Byrne to add the perfect note of romance and glamour to the costumes and accessories in the film. Christine's engagement ring, worn prominently on a chain around her neck, is made with Swarovski's precision cut cubic zirconia, while the lavish Swarovski shop window is filled with evocative period jewels set with Swarovski crystal jewellery stones.
