IDENTIFYING MY SEA GLASS

by JUDY DEHART
(MEDINA, TX)

I CAME ACROSS SOME SEA GLASS AT AN ESTATE SALE.

THEY TOLD ME THAT THE COUPLE COLLECTED SEA GLASS ON THEIR TRAVELS.

I DO NOT KNOW WHERE THE CAME FROM. PLEASE LOOK AT THE PICTURES AND GIVE ME ANY INFORMATION YOU CAN, LIKE IF YOU THINK IT IS REAL TUMBLED SEA GLASS AND WHAT GRADE AND COLOR YOU WOULD GIVE IT.

THANK YOU,

JUDY

I think it is real sea glass. But it looks like it was at least partially melted in a fire (bonfire glass) at one time and then tumbled some more. The color looks like a sea green or emerald green.

“I am so fascinated by sea glass - I can’t believe at 70 I found a new hobby.

Thanks for the opportunity to search and read up on this!”

“Your site made me so happy tonight! Why?

Many happy memories swirled back into my mind when I saw your pictures. I spent my childhood on the beaches of Cape Cod and we spent many happy hours looking for sea glass.”

“Hi David and Lin.

Love your sea glass web site. I enjoy your picture of the month and intend on winning at least once.

I have been collecting and creating things from sea glass for over twenty years. I find my sea glass on the beautiful shores of Lake Erie in Cleveland Ohio.

Thank you for sharing your treasures with me.” Yours truly,

“Just wanted to let you know (since you were so helpful) that I won a blue ribbon (1st place) in Gifford Middle School Science Fair in the category of Environmental Science with my topic - Effect of a Florida Tidal Inlet on Wrack Line Sea Glass Volume.

Now, I will compete in the Regional Science Fair which will take place on Feb 2nd. My mom and dad and I had a lot of fun searching for sea glass.

Thanks,”
