Sea Glass Beads .. Ever wonder where those bottles of rum and gin went after they were smashed over the heads of pirates? Well, the shards were usually swept overboard by cabin boys where they would slowly make their way to the nearest shore to be pounded by the surf and sand. Decades or centuries later, people are still finding these smoothly polished shards all over the world.
After many failed attempts at finding large amounts of sea glass on the beach, we decided to manufacture our own. Our sea glass beads are made to mimic the sand polishing action of hundreds of years of waves crashing ashore. Using a sped up process quite similar to the actual process, we cut and polish high density glass to a rough shape, then treat the beads with three different grits of sand-like polish in a tumbler. The entire process shortens from centuries to only two weeks. Plus you get very similar colors and shapes, something we found very hard to do when scouring miles of beach.
Today I received my first-ever order from ZNetShows and I must tell you that it was such a pleasure to see what was in the box! I ordered 27 different kinds of gemstone chip beads (many of the kinds completely unseen because there wasn t a picture on your site) and I love every single one of them. The size and quality is great the polishing work is excellent and I am just so happy. Thank you!
