SALTRYST CULTURED BEACH GLASS
Real v ”Fake” Sea Glass
Nothing conjures the salt spray magic of the seaside like beach glass; its rarity only adds to its mystique.
Faux (manufactured) sea glass is usually a soulless affair, thick chunks of few colours, minimally tumbled to approximate a beachgass finish.
Saltryst cultured sea glass is completely different, and you may find it indistinguishable from “authentic” ocean-weathered pieces.
Saltryst Secrets
At Saltryst, actual bottles or other glass objects are recycled into treasures. Each piece of glass has a history, whether it came from a chipped pink depression glass plate, or a recently enjoyed Pinot Grigio bottle. The glass undergoes treatments to obtain the most authentic finish possible, including a tumbling stage in water rich with marine salts and minerals. The resulting variegated grain size and sparkling frost delights as surely as authentic ocean-tumbled specimens.
Artistry to go
Every one-of-a-kind Saltryst art piece is handmade with attention to detail. From the selection of raw glass to gift wrapping your special find, each step is approached from an artist’s viewpoint.
Custom work may be available, including wedding favors. Additionally, we accept orders based on your source material (that green Fireking mug handed down from your grandmother that you cannot part with... despite the chipped lip and missing handle!).
