What is Sea Glass ?

Authentic Sea Glass nuggets are smooth frosted pieces of glass found on many beaches around the world..also

known as Beach Glass, Mermaids’ Tears, Sea Sapphires, Ocean Gems, & Atlantic Amber.




Most sea glass originated as old bottles & jars once discarded at sea or as a result of shipwrecks. There are many colours in sea glass, some very rare such as grey, purple and red glass.... which was probably from a port side lamp; whilst a piece of cobalt blue might have been an old apothecary bottle.....


     =     &




Sea glass is naturally tumbled smooth by the sea over many decades, and is eventually coaxed back to the shore by the tides, - surely re-cycling at its best ? You can tell authentic sea glass from the fake sea glass on the market by the frosted appearance and tiny 'c' marks made by the salt water, sand, rocks & pebbles.

 

All our sea glass was found by us over many years & hours of beachcombing, in Spain, Cayman Islands, Italy, Egypt, Portugal, Spain, France, Algiers, Ireland & UK.

  ...shown here in Cuba....

 


 

  .....and not so glamourous

  in Cumbria!





We remove excess salt with soap but the amazing shapes and colours are unaltered, & we drill minute holes when necesary with a dentist's drill! Sea Glass is now a limited resource & getting much harder to find.
