Our beaded Lanyards are strung on 21 gauge steel cable, they are strong and come with a satisfaction guarantee. They average 32 inches in length - the standard for most lanyards. Our Lanyards are decorated with the finest leaded crystal beads made in Austria-Swarovski. All our Lanyards have the appropriate swivel hardware at the bottom - and convert to the most known I.D badges. They are strong and sturdy - but pretty enough to wear every day.
