Your earrings will arrive in a pretty gift bag ready for gift giving to a friend (or yourself!)
All of my jewelry is handmade by me from genuine sea glass and beach stones tumbled by the sea.
Did you know that It takes decades for broken glass to become sea glass? Old glass bottles, jars and even old car windows and tail lights that were dumped into the ocean decades ago as trash, are worn down by the sand and waves making a smooth, beautiful gem we call sea glass. Later to be washed up onto the shore to be found by a lucky beachcomber! Every piece is unique!
Green sea glass is mostly from beer and wine bottles, some of it may also be from art glass. One in fifty pieces of sea glass will be green.
Brown sea glass may come mainly from beer, root beer and whiskey bottles. The older the glass the less common it is. Old Clorox and Lysol products came in large brown bottles. Today, many wine and American beer companies still use brown bottles to help protect the liquor inside the bottles from the sun. Something in the region of one in two pieces of sea glass will be brown.
