Sea Glass Marble Earrings, sterling silver leverback
Wow, just wow! These sea glass codd marble earrings are truly outstanding. They are very elegant and hang almost like pearls.
SIZE
Marble approx 14mm dia each
In lever back sterling silver earring
Inside each earring sits a small 14mm Codd marble, which was used up until the beginning of the last century in the UK to keep carbonated drinks safe for travel. Once opened the marbles sat in the thick glass bottles and more often than not little boys made them their own and took the marbles to play with... every now and again a marble found its way into the rough Seas off the British coast and were lost for almost 100 years... until they were found and made into lovely jewellery with a history!
Sea glass marble found on the rough coasts of England/Seaham. The marbles are top and bottom drilled, just enough to keep them secure, but not all the way through.
