it is made of water,earth and air
Crystals are made from ions arranging themselves in a specific pattern, making the characteristic shapes known from crystal caves and microscopic pictures of table salt.
The elements can be any two ions as long as their combined charge is neutral - this can be achieved by having twice or thrice as many 'lesser' charged ions to make up for a 'more' charged ion.
The elements involved can thus be any atoms that can exist as ions or as a part of a polyatomic ion.

Why does alum make big crystals?
It's not that only alum makes big crystals.. There are so many compounds that can make big crystals. Even Sodium Hydroxide makes very good and big crystals. For crystals you need a uniform arrangement of atoms in space. For big crystals all you need is patience. The slower is the crystallization process the bigger crystals are formed. What industries do is called seeding. They make a good concentrated solution of the compound whose crystals are needed and then they put a crystal of the same compound in the solution. The new crystals form and attach to the crystal making quick and big crystals.

How would crystals formed early from magma be larger and better formed than those formed later?
The crystals formed early by magma would not be deficient of certain elements. Once these elements are used up, they are not available in the magma to form later crystals.
Are swarovski elements genuine swarovski crystals?
They sure are! In fact, Swarovski Elements is the VERY BEST of the Swarovski Brand of crystals. Swarovski Elements was originally known as Swarovsk Strass. The more economical option is Swarovski Spectra. Anyway, LOOK FOR THE SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS LOGO, as it should be ENGRAVED on their chandelier crystals. Just looking at a chandelier in Spectra and another in Elements, and you will see immediately that Elements is far superior, but it is very expensive as well, hence the Spectra line.
