I collected this sea glass on a trip to Seaham in 2019 and my collection remained sat in a little jar whilst I worked out how to use them!  I decided wrapping them in silver coated wire or making little cages to suspend them in would work. When wet seaglass looks shiny but once out of the water it takes on a frosted appearance. You can read about the area and why sea glass can be found there on local web pages:

'Seaham and nearby Sunderland were home to many bottleworks and glass making factories during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Seaham boasted the largest glass bottle works in Britain – The Londonderry Bottleworks, operating from the 1850s to 1921. 

The bottleworks produced up to 20,000 hand-blown bottles every day, in different colours and designs including hand crafted bottles, perfume bottles and household glass, all of which were distributed across the globe. 

The bottleworks would dump large amounts of waste glass straight into the North Sea and that’s where Seaham’s sea glass story began! That’s why with each new tide, you’re certain to find colour little gems along Seaham’s shore, which have been shaped and smoothed by the North Sea for over 100 years'.
