naturally tumbled by the waves, the wind and the tides, this is a 19" sterling silver necklace with a lovely brown piece of sea glass, wrapped in silver bezel.
each piece of salty blue is hand crafted with love & care & intent. the intention is to create things that have a story, in hopes that if something has a story, it gives it more meaning & it's not just something bought at a store with no soul, no character, no depth. that & i like a good yarn... storytelling is a fabulous way to be connected with the world around you & the people & the things in it. it's also a great way to share wisdom & mystery & history. sea glass has a great story & is also surrounded in mystery & lore, often referred to as mermaid tears. it's also a great recycling story- what started as sand, was turned into glass for a particular use for a particular amount of time & then returned to the sea, only to be tumbled by the waves & the tides & the wind, & finally to be returned to shore, magically in my lucky footpath & now, into this bit of jewelry, looking for a good home to carry on the story, the mystery & the beauty of it all.
so much of the inspiration for all things salty blue is the water: salty, fresh, turquoise or cobalt, blue blue blue; for this beautiful blue planet that we share & need to care for- not just for us, but for all the others we discount share it with & all those to come after us, too. enjoy!!
as with almost everything salty blue, each piece comes with a story- & a little blue gift bag. my grandmother and my mama used to sew my clothes when i was little. that and my grandmother loved turquoise just as much as i do. when she passed, she had a closet full of fabric- & plenty of it was turquoise, so each little salty blue gift bag is from that stash of fabric (as long as it lasts), sewn by my ever-loving mama. so each time i package up another salty blue treasure to send it off to a good home, i get to give thanks to both my grandma in the sky & my mama at her sewing machine... both of which, bring me great joy & gratitude for such wonderful family love & support.
