Inspired by the beautiful beach at Poppit Sands at the mouth of the Teifi Estuary in Pembrokeshire, Wales.

We wanted this bead to capture the ever changing colours of the sea coming up over the beach and river banks. The core is made using a gravity swirl technique of opaque turquoise and purple glass. This is encased with a filigrano glass with a cream coloured core which creates random 'sand' streamers around the bead to represent the banks of the estuary. The bead is then given a final encasing with clear glass.

These beads will all be very individual in pattern due the nature of the techniques used in making them so please expect variations from the product sample image.
