16 Sea Glass Jewellery Designs We Love

sea glass jewellery

Here at Kernowcraft, we're a sucker for sea glass jewellery! This man made gem is one we see everyday from jewellers, with amazing designs and ideas of how to incorporate this natural stone into pieces of jewellery. Living in Cornwall, we love spending our afternoons searching for sea glass on our local beaches!

Over on Facebook, we asked our customers to share with us their sea glass designs and we were not disappointed! There were so many inspirational pieces.

Take a look at our favourite below, and also discover our jewellery making advice pages filled with tips and tutorials to help guide you through techniques - this includes creating a bezel setting for a piece of sea glass.

Our featured photo, shows Hayley Agar Jeweller's beautiful wire-wrapped sea glass bangle with our sterling silver starfish charm.
