"SEA-SWIMMING JEWELRY"

These necklaces and earrings are made with gold, glass beads, semi-precious stone beads, and hand-painted sea glass. Each piece is a unique design.  The sea glass belonged to jars, bottles, plates and other objects of use to humans.  Then they were tossed and spent many happy years swimming with sea bass and clams.  Suddenly they found themselves on a beach, wedged among damp sand and other sea-smoothed shards—they were on Beach Glass Shore in Mendocino, CA.  That’s where we met—they’ve been drilled, painted, poked and tied.  Even so, they still sparkle with the memories of their days swimming in the waves.

These designs were created in collaboration with Mark Fischer
