Photo of the Week
Submitted by Manuela from Milan, Italy.
Manuela, Milan, Italy: Hello! Here is only a small part of my collection. I have been collecting (in Italy) for five years now.

Journal: You certainly have found some beautiful sea glass Manuela! This photo just shows one more reason why visiting Italy is a must-do for any sea glass collector.

The Sea Glass Shard of the Month: December 2013

Clorox Amber Sea Glass Base Segment

In the spotlight for this month is a bottom section of the ubiquitous Clorox amber brown glass bottle found on many coastlines around the United States.

Sea Glass Gluttony

Well, it seems some Bermudians are dismayed over the sea glass collecting practices of some tourists on their island as reported in The Royal Gazette. One local complained about seeing a couple of tourists walking away with 5 gallon buckets full of the glassy treasure.
I guess I can understand this person's frustration. If it were one of my collecting spots I wouldn't want it cleaned out of all the sea glass with such selfish desire.
As collectors we should all consider how much we actually need to take with us. It would be considerate to save some for the next visitor. Remember, you are the next visitor no matter where you go.
A little courtesy doesn't hurt.
