    For people that like sea glass

    I LOVE sea glass so of course it piqued my interest when I first saw it on a cruise ship. It never occurred to me that someone would write a book about the different types and colors of sea glass. This book has wonderful pictures and explains where the different colors come from. Anyway, I didn't have time to read the book on the cruise, so I ordered this pre-owned copy.

  • Sea Glass Beach Glass Guide and Reference

    This book is an excellant source of a wide variety of general and basic information for new and existing sea glass beach glass collectors. As a reader, you are given an excellant history of what sea glass is, its history, and how it becomes the little frosted gems that are deposted on the beach. Great attention is given to individual colors, their identification and rarity. I specifically like how this book dedicates pages to individual color giving you bold pictures of the glass as you would find it and an example in its orginal form as bottles or tableware. If you are a new sea glass collector or experienced collector, this is a wonderful book to have as a guide for your personal collection.

  • Pure Sea Glass

    Great book describing your precious glass finds along the beaches and a history of the glass and colors that you've found. Fun and educational.
