Soul purpose

Swarovski crystals have added sparkle to everything from frocks and bags to sex toys and replicas of the ruby slippers Dorothy wears in The Wizard of Oz. The company also has a homeware line, the latest collection of which, Soul of Time, includes Satin Silex candleholders (below right; HK$4,100). The Classics collection, meanwhile, has the striking Shell vase (far left; HK$5,800), a clam-shaped container that should double the charm of blooms. The items are available from Swarovski outlets, including shop 1051, IFC Mall, Central, tel: 2234 7126.
