Cornflower Blue is one of my absolute favourite colours to find as it is one of the rarest amongst sea glass. Historically expensive to produce, far less of it was ever made than other colours and so only a small amount made it into the ocean. This particular gem is a beautiful rounded water-droplet shape and has the beautiful textured surface that makes each piece of sea glass so unique. Each piece I use is hand-collected by me from the beaches and coves of Cornwall and your jewellery will arrive with a little map showing where your sea glass gem was beach-combed.
Sea glass is formed when old, discarded glass is weathered by the waves, sand and pebbles until it transforms into a smooth, luminous treasure. Once known as “Mermaids’ Tears,” these gems were said to be the tears of mermaids mourning sailors lost at sea. The colour, thickness and tiny features within the glass, such as bubbles, offer clues to its origin and age.
I have handmade the setting using 100% recycled sterling and fine silver, finished with my makers’ mark of three waves on the back. It is available as the pendant only or add on a solid silver chain from the options. The sea glass in this pendant measures 10mm by 8.5mm. It comes with:
A map showing where the sea glass was found
A non-toxic microfibre polishing cloth
A recycled gift box
Unlike artificial or man-made “sea glass,” genuine sea glass can be identified by tiny crescent-shaped markings across the surface—unique patterns created only by the ocean’s touch. I never use imitation glass, only authentic pieces I personally beach-comb.
All photos are taken in natural daylight with no filters. Colours may vary slightly depending on your screen, and as with all true sea glass, the gem will appear to shift shades in different lighting, often glowing beautifully in direct light.
