Magnolia Creations Sea Glass Jewelry

Chesapeake Bay Sea Glass Collection

May 2021

The sea glass used in this jewelry was collected by me on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland between 2019-2021. It is authentic sea glass. Each piece of sea glass is unique with shapes and imperfections caused by decades of tumbling naturally in the Bay.

This collection is available at Lady’s Island Marina Store in Beaufort, SC. https://photos.app.goo.gl/fkZd2kQKjo5QsJfK8

The proceeds (above material costs) will be donated to The Beachcombing Center in Tilgham, MD. The non-profit’s mission is to educate the world about all aspects of beachcombing, preserve a world-class collection for the public to explore and enjoy, and increase awareness about coastal erosion and marine debris.
