Description

A handful of beautiful sea-glass nuggets are captured on a beach glass necklace of Japanese Miyuki seed beads of colours which graduate from the lightest to the darkest shades of each nugget, strung on a strong nylon-coated steel wire. It's a riot of colours which take us back to a shoreline in Cornwall or Devon, which is where all these nuggets were collected by myself and the beautiful Japanese seed-beads were carefully chosen to set off the colours. The three strands of nuggets are intertwined as if tangled strands of seaweed in a rock-pool and the whole piece is finished off with a beautiful handmade silver closure and cone-ends. The little flat spacer disc beads each side of the nuggets are made from dyed aluminium and keep the nuggets in their places. The necklace measures approx' 50cm (19 and a half inches) from end to end and is presented in a pretty little bag, wrapped in tissue and delivered in a box with care instructions and my own imagery. With its time-worn aesthetic, this item is handmade and one-of-a-kind, from the Tamar Mudlark collection, with sea-glass found by myself on local Devon and Cornwall shorelines. Your necklace pendant will be sent via Royal Mail tracked 48hr service (UK). Packaging: Paper and card packaging is made from sustainable source recycled pulp fibres. Little drawstring bags are sustainable source recycled Fair Trade Cotton. Protective mailing bags are made from cornstarch, not plastic! All packaging is home-compostable and recyclable. I have a zero-waste approach to chemicals and processes in my workshop.

Caring for your jewellery: To keep your silver, copper and brass jewellery from oxidising (going very dark) don’t allow your jewellery to come into contact with cleaning products, chlorinated water, perfumes or lotions. Give your metal jewellery a regular buff with a jewellery polishing cloth to maintain shine or use an old toothbrush and some silver polishing cream then buff (protect your sea-glass from the cream by covering it with masking tape). To revive the vibrancy and translucence of your sea-glass, simply apply a miniscule smidge of baby oil onto the glass with a lint-free cloth (this will not tarnish your metal) then wipe away any excess.
