About Our Sea Glass.....
For years we have gathered those wayward bits of glass that we found on the beach and saved them in a bowl for the sun to shine through. When my husband retired, we found that we loved cruising-especially in the Caribbean. There, too, we found more bits of beach glass and happily carried it home.The sea glass has long ago outgrown the bowl in the window but the desire to collect it never slowed. We finally realized that incorporating it into our jewelry would satisfy both the collector and the creator sides of us and that has brought us to our latest passion--sea glass jewelry. We have sold many of our pieces through shops at the beach and at first worried that the jewelry would erode too much of our sea glass collection but we found that it just inspires us to find more.
Our jewelry is made mostly from sea glass that we, ourselves, have found. Sadly, there is now so much tumbled, fake sea glass out there that we seldom buy our glass from anyone--only those we know and trust.
All of our jewelry is made from the pieces that are without sharp edges and that are totally "frosted". This is a very small portion of the glass that we find--the rest simply fills containers for us to smile at when the sun shines on them and the glass comes to life. We always try to keep in mind that this glass started as trash-tumbled in the waves until it landed on a beach-it is actually liter we pick up. Isn't it strange that our folly of dumping our trash into the ocean has rewarded us with these wonderful little treasures from the sea which we use to create wearable art that is
ecologically sensitive.
We simply use our best pieces to share with you the beauty that has been provided by the action of the waves and the sea.
Our glass has been collected from the East Coast, Bermuda, the Caribbean and Puerto Rico.
