Company Profile and Mission

Gerri's Crystals was founded by Gerri Behan in 2000.  It is licensed in the City of Roseburg, State of Oregon.  The company was founded in California where Gerri and her family lived.  In 2009, Gerri and her husband Robert moved to Roseburg, OR and subsequently the operation was moved to OR.  Before this venture, Gerri had been working as a health care clinical data analyst with hospitals and medical centers in Califoria for many years.  She fell in love with Swarovski crystals while taking a beading class and subsequently spent endless hours in working with different designs using  Swarovski crystal beads.  Her enthusiasm led to her meeting of a Swarovski executive who encouraged her to pursue this business.  In 2002, Gerri left her full time position with the Hospital to devote to her business..  Gerri's son, Sean, joined the business in 2003 and Sean oversees operation while Gerri concentrates in customer relations and business development.  Gerri has also developed through the years photography skill on small objects and the pictures on the beads are all photographed by Gerri herself.  Gerri's husband, Robert, is a professional accountant.   Robert helps out with the books, taxes, and other administrative duties.  After the business moved to Oregon in September, 2009, Sean remains as an advisor but no longer works in operation. Gerri's new partner, Cindy Norton will be taking over the day to day operation with Gerri.

Our mission is to stock as large as a selection of Swarovski crystal beads as possible. She also works diligently to acquire hard to find beads that are rare including vintage beads and large sizes and discontinued colors that are well loved by many and offer to our customers at a fair price.
