Seaham Sea Glass |
I love Seaham beach in the North East of England, this is
where the six bottle houses formed the largest glass production facility in
Europe and exported across the world. Prior to the bottle works there was a small decorative glass works in the yard
of the Canterbury, our Sea glass is around 150 years old, it’s an antique &
are rarer than diamonds with each sea glass being unique and one of a kind your surely will fall in love with them just
like I did. The North Sea has tumbled them smooth and given us back these
astonishing gems.
The bottle works factory opened in the year of 1853 and John
Candlish bought the bottle works in 1855 and closed in 1921. They produced all
sorts of glass bottles, expensive poison bottles, beer bottles, and their small
decorative glass works produced Victorian vases, wine glasses and decorative
glass, and I have been told magnificent glass chandeliers. At the end of the each
day they would take their waste out to sea and throw it overboard into the
North Sea and it’s been rolling & tumbling in the sea for years and making
them smooth. The sea has given us these magical one off pieces of incredible
sea glass which we find daily along our beaches. Seaham sea glass is very
collectible, and is known throughout the world, it’s because of the history behind
these treasures that make them so collectible. The price will only increase in value.
They will be heirlooms one day, to pass on to your generations.
