A black frosted glass spiral hung from three jump rings and a stainless steel chain makes a tactile necklace you'll enjoy wearing every day. Inspired by time spent on the beach, the glass charm has a sea glass like finish.

The glass spiral is made with transparent black glass. The spiral imprint adds texture. When the charm is tumble etched the glass develops a frosted finish, and the indented areas stay shiny.

Measurements

The glass spiral measures approximately 14mm in diameter and is 16mm high including the small hanging loop.  The charm hangs on a 5mm jump ring, which then hangs from another two 5mm jump rings. A 45cm (18 inch) stainless steel trace chain passes through the  jump ring. The chain fastens with a lobster clasp. 

How is this necklace made?

Creating this piece starts with making a glass ball on a small stainless steel bail. While the glass is molten this is flattened and imprinted with a brass spiral stamp. The charm is then tumble etched to give a frosted, sea glass like finish.

What is the necklace made from?

The charm is made from soda lime glass. 

The small loop fused into the glass is stainless steel. The Jump rings, chain and clasp are also stainless steel.

Is it sea glass?

While my jewellery may look like sea glass, each piece is made using lampwork glass techniques. I fuse glass directly onto stainless steel hooks as I create each charm — no drilling, no gluing. The glass is then tumble-etched with grit and sand to achieve a frosted, sea glass-inspired finish. This process ensures the glass is securely attached, even after hours in a rock tumbler.

Designed to be both beautiful and durable, my jewellery is made to be enjoyed for years to come. Working this way allows me to craft unique colours and textures that capture the essence of sea glass while offering something truly one-of-a-kind.

This necklace come in 15 colours, all with matching earrings.
