Caribbean Memories



This is a large piece measuring 2 3/4" from top to bottom of focal piece. Techniques used: reticulation on sterling silver, beach glass piece is sewn into the base, soldering and forming...a very organic piece and a real statement piece. This seaglass piece is not flat and neither is the base. The base started out flat but I was not at all happy with it so I went at it on the stakes and with pliers to make it FLOW just like the glass. One-of-a-kind and cannot be repeated.


The beach glass was found on a sunny carribean beach...picture caribbean blue water just like travel brochures, white sand with lots of shells, and a brilliant blue sky. Equally wonderful was that David and I were the only ones on the beach for as far as the eye could see.


$369 and comes with anti-tarnish pouch for storage to keep it shiney for a long time.
