Seaglass necklace

IMG_4688

I’ve come to the conclusion that other people are better at selecting jewellery for me than I am. This is from one of my friends who thought a necklace that featured some element of the sea was suitable for someone like me. The blue piece of glass is seaglass. You can collect seaglass on most beaches; it’s broken glass rounded by the action of the sea. Based on what I see by way of broken glass on local beaches to me, I won’t see to much in the way of this beautiful blue as clear glass and brown glass is favoured for “breaking on the beach” purposes in Dollymount. The necklace also features a silver starfish and a freshwater pearl. It really is very beautiful.

This got taken because I was playing with light and a macro lens this afternoon.

    That is a very beautiful piece of jewelry – and a gorgeous photo! I have been collecting seaglass on the beaches of the Howth peninsula for the past 10 years and have a lot of stunning pieces. I have lots of dreams of making pieces such as yours, but alas, my laziness overules my creative drive……… maybe someday! Long may you live happy and healthy to enjoy your beautiful gift!
