WELCOME TO THE SHELLSEEKERS COLLECTION
This collection is personal, inspired by the shells that litter the beaches here on the Crystal Coast and that I dutifully carry home in my sandy pockets after every visit. Most are not the perfect finds, rather the eccentric, the odd and the most beautiful pieces of nature left as scraps for me to find. Enjoy and check back often as I upload my new creations.
#214 A pearl and jade dream; a slice of shell suspended from a row of pale green freshwater pearls and jade chips, encircles a tiny shell bead on a silver wire. Accents are moonstone beads, green glass, much like seaglass found often on the shore, and grey hematite beads. The findings are all silver-plated barrel, including the earwires. The earrings are dainty stacks of freshwater pearls, jade chips and shell and hematite beads. Fresh, ocean green and gorgeous. Only one.

#155 Sophisticated and daring, this necklace set creates a look that only the fashion-confident can pull off. The perfect white and chocolate brown pearls with sterling silver spacers set the stage as rich brown coral pieces change the tone to a more quirky texture. Sunny citrine adds warmth and the glass pearl beads taper the sound to a whisper. Feels amazing. Necklace measures 17.5" and ends with a sterling silver hook. The earrings mirror the texture with citrine, coral and a tiny glass pearl on sterling silver earwires. $45.00 (sterling silver)
#257 A necklace and earring set that is glamorous and focuses on delicate details. The pendant is a smooth piece of shell found on Atlantic beach and handwired with both copper and silver wire. The gold-plated beads, small white freshwater pearls and rectangles of yellow adventurine give this necklace it's delicate length. Silver plate beads of different shapes add texture and sparkle. Two green glass beads add a spark of color interest. A gold-toned lobster claw clasp and a silver hand-crafted swan finish the 16 inch necklace. The earrings are delicate stacks of yellow adventurine and freshwater pearls on silverplate earwires. $50.00

#191 A simple cowry shell is the center of this exotic necklace set. Four pillows of autumn jasper add the colors of the late falling leaves which are picked up by the tiny shells and the large rich chocolate freshwater pearls. Lights are added by the tiny pink freshwater pearls and glass pearl seed beads. Two rough amber chunks flank the cowry, and silver blass add sparkle and warmth. The necklace measures 18 inches and end with a silver-plated hook and extension and tiny pink pearl detail. Earrings are chocolate brown and pale pink freshwater pearls on silver-plated earwires. Set price $40.
