Sea glass or beach glass is colored glass that is been found upon the seashore. Perhaps at one time it was a bottle or vase which was discarded into the sea. Now it has been discovered upon the beach, sculpted smooth by natures wind, waves, currents, tides, and sand. The frosty, smooth gem has become an elegant treasure, recycled and renewed.
All jewelry comes on a gift card that tells the story of sea glass and the ocean shore it was picked up from!
West Coast Sea Glass is located in Sunny Sequim Washington.

About Sea Glass - Genuine VS Artificial Sea Glass   Page: 1 | 2 | 3

The adoration of genuine sea glass has caused artificial, man made "frosted glass" to show up on the modern market.  This mechanically created glass is not "sea glass".

Real sea glass is glass that has spent time and a unique journey at sea.  It has stood the test of time and tide, often for decades.  This is what gives genuine, beach combed sea glass its value and significance.  The process of mimicking the forces of nature cannot exactly be duplicated. 

For years, West Coast Sea Glass has been leading the way to bring the customer beach combed sea glass.
