Aquidneck Island Sea Glass

Sea Glass (sometimes referred to as mermaid tears) is broken glass that’s been discarded into an ocean where it is transformed by the tumbling, churning powers of those bodies of water as it breaks into smaller pieces, floats to and fro with rocks, sands and waves until it is converted into a beautiful, flawless, sea glass gem with no rough edges remaining. The process can take from 30-50 and even up to 100 years or more, depending on ocean currents and tidal conditions.
