We've been doing alot of research and reading over the last few weeks on the healing properties of gemstones and the related attributes of color in general. Scientific studies are providing more and more credance to these ancient beliefs. Most of us wear certain colors of clothing and tend to shy away from others--how fascinating that there may actually be a correlation between the colors we wear and the way we feel!! This correlation has been applied to gemstones for years and now even more is surfacing as relating to color in general.
Sea Glass comes in a rainbow of colors! You can find it in just about every imaginable shade. Every collector has a favorite color of Sea Glass that they have chosen or are looking for. But, we have found that, more often the color chooses the person. Each color has individual qualities that the new owner is attracted to. Color Science tells us that every color draws specific energies to the wearer. People lacking in a certain energy are naturally drawn to it, so someone needing more peace and tranquility in their life will tend to choose blues and greens. People seeking more energy and vitality tend to want more vivid colors like red and amber. We have included the qualities of each color in the chart below.
Not all colors are created equally! Some colors like red and orange are rare while other colors like white and emerald green are plentiful. Richard LaMotte in his recent book "Pure Sea Glass" has provided a resource for gauging the relative rarity of a particular shade. You can check the chart on our web page for the rarity of your favorite color of Sea Glass!
