Seaglass & the Colours
Beach glass, Sea glass, Sand glass. Mermaid’s tears. Emeralds from the deep.
Sparkling treasures discovered on the ocean's shore. Years, sometimes centuries of pounding waves and tumbling sand transform jagged broken glass discarded by humans, into smooth naturally frosted jewels. As I beach comb I ponder all the possibilities of the origin of each glass treasure….apothecary bottles, old wine bottles, alka seltzer and Noxzema containers. Perhaps, just maybe, the latest piece is linked to a tale of intrigue and secrecy... a ruby red wine goblet thrown in rage from a pirate ship...
I do not alter the glass in size or shape. Mother Nature has already perfected its beauty so I use the glass “as is” and design the jewelry to reflect the individual piece of sea glass. The overall value of each design reflects the rarity of the glass, the time required to customize the setting and the amount of sterling silver used. The colorful palette of these translucent sea jewels includes greens, whites and browns. Aqua, blue, lavender, lime green and red are the rarest of all.
This beautiful affordable jewelry is hand crafted with genuine sea glass. Each piece is hand-drilled underwater with diamond tipped drills. This exacting procedure preserves its natural form. While some may be similar in style and colour they are never identical. Each piece is as unique and individual as you are!
