Prairie Glass Necklace Collections

These uniquely beautiful necklaces are made with glass sourced from the prairies of Wyoming. I offer the below styles to choose from. Each piece features similar, yet unique variations in shape, texture and color due to the unique shapes and sizes of glass I find. Necklaces are made from various size pieces of glass. Small glass is dime to penny size. Medium pieces vary between a nickel to a quarter in size. And, large glass can be silver dollar size or bigger.

More About My Jewelry & Process

  I live on the prairie of Wyoming, but water is in my soul. You can’t step into the same river twice, nor are two pairs of earrings ever exactly the same. Some collections have similar, or even the same beads, but since the glass is unique in size and shape, no two pieces are ever identical. By choosing similar pairs of earrings and sending a pair to a friend, you can always be close, knowing the other is wearing a similar pair of earrings. I collect discarded material as it is necessary to prevent future generations from thinking it’s ok to litter, all the while, making the world a cleaner, more artistic place. Ventifact is a geological term for surfaces smoothed by wind and grit. I find, collect and create with broken glass that has been softened by the wind.
