Is Swarovski tacky?

I'm clueless at this as I don't wear much jewlerry. Just my engagement ring and the dreaded (mine is tasteful!!) pandora bracelet and I am aware of how Mumsnett feels about those [Grin

My gran died a few months ago and when she was near the end she gave me £300 in cash she'd been saving up (she wasn't well off and had been saving it from her pension Sad ) and she told me I had to buy myself something shiny!

I've not touched it yet but I'd love to spend it on a nice necklace that I can wear to remind me of her.

I was looking at Tiffany but nothing's grabbing me. Then I saw Swavovski had a sale on with hefty discount on some stuff but I'm not sure if you're just paying for the name- are the stones actually nice and worth the money?

Aby help appreciated!

Or an independent jeweller (you get more for your money than with high st chains) or a vintage piece which will also be better value.
