My bold jewelry evokes a
connection with the world's waters.
Seaglass is old bottles, household and industry glass items that have been discarded and tumbled by the waves, sand and rocks.
Genuine seaglass is as it was on the beach, not altered, coloured or changed. The seller can tell you where it was found and when.
These are ways to tell if your seaglass is genuine:
1.It has pores and texture. There are small C shaped abrasions from the sand and rock tumbling against the glass.
2. It has a frosted look. This is caused by long exposure to sea water which breaks down the glass structure. It’s not just a salt residue left on.
3. It has specific shape, colour and thickness. Some seaglass is thinner, but often it’s quite thick. Some pieces have curves from its original structure. Bubbles can appear from old handmade glass.
10 Reasons to buy genuine seaglass
1. Value- it will only go up
2. Genuine
3. Made by nature- not man made or a mass produced item
4. Unique- no 2 pieces are alike
5. Provenance- it has a story
6. Natural- not coloured or altered
7. Made by the sea
8. Eco friendly
9. Tactile
10. Handcrafted by an artisan

I love my sea glass earrings that I purchased. When I wear them, they are light, not heavy and uncomfortable. They are very earthy, elegant and unique. I love them!

Inspired by the Oceans’s Majesty
• The ocean’s power and beauty have always captivated me.
• Scuba diving introduced me to the wonders of sea glass.
• Roaming the shorelines, collecting sea glass, and transforming it into unique jewelry is my passion.
