Abaco Seaglass
© Marlee Mason
Ancient vessels sailing from the Americas, the Caribbean and numerous exotic ports
wrecked on the Abaco coral reefs and spilled valuable cargo, including hand-blown
glass containers.
Carried by ocean currents, shattered bottles, glass buoys and Loyalist tableware
washed up on the rocky shores of the outer cays. Years of tumbling through the surf
and sand have polished these relics into authentic "seaglass gems."
Unique antique seaglass set into fine and sterling silver captures the romantic
history of Abaco while Marlee's dichroic designs reflect the dance and sparkle
of the sea.
View this exotic island source of original and authentic Bahamian seaglass
jewelry. This collection of designs reflect only a small sample with new designs
created weekly.
Hand made by local artist, Marlee, on the
enchanted Island of Abaco, Bahamas,
sea polished antique pieces
are often combined with precious and semi precious gemstones or
coral or local shells. Other maritime theme jewelry is worked with modern dichroic glass. Dichroic
glass is fused with metal oxides to refract
light in a particularly charming manner which you will find absolutely stunning. Enjoy and
feel free to email me to discuss commissions.
