Bottle Green Ring
Since opening my
showroom in Bar Harbor, I’ve learned
that sea glass jewelry is in high demand.
I love the stuff, but have intentionally
stayed away from it because I used to apprentice
with a woman who made it her trademark.
At the time, not so many designers were
making jewelry with it. We live on the same
island. Therefore, I kept my distance from
the material for 15 years. Last fall, I
went on a field trip visiting galleries
on my own Island and throughout Downeast
Maine. I quickly realized that there is
a lot of sea glass jewelry made in all kinds
of styles by many different artists now.
The woman I worked with is fully established
(wildly successful) and so I feel free to
offer you at long last, my Bar Harbor collection. |
Did you know it takes the ocean roughly 40 years
to make a well-rounded piece of sea glass? Did you
know that with all of the recycling we now do, the
sea glass is not being replenished? So it’s
ironic when you consider that this beautiful, natural
bi-product of littering (lets be realistic after-all)
could actually be mined out! It is getting harder
and harder to find nice sea glass. All of my glass
is from Maine or Prince Edward Island in Canada. Our
family’s very own Katy Perry (David’s
Grammie), writer extraordinaire, found these pieces.
Sterling bottle green sea glass ring about size 7
1/4 . It has a fancy textured band.
$125.
