Coastal Curio Designs isn’t just about jewelry or décor—it’s about carrying a piece of the ocean with you. Every seashell, marine fossil, and curiosity used has been personally collected, each one with its own tide-swept journey before becoming part of something lasting.

My shadow box mosaics turn simple beach finds into artful keepsakes, designed to bring the calm and wonder of the coast into your home. My jewelry—crafted from genuine freshwater pearls, natural stones, and handcollected seashells paired with waterproof, tarnish-resistant stainless steel—is made with durability in mind, so you can wear it anywhere from saltwater to city streets.

Every piece is crafted with care, intention, and a genuine love for the ocean. They provide a way to hold onto memories of sandy toes, crashing waves, and beach adventures—or to give someone else a gift that tells that story.

All of my finds are ethically sourced; no living animal is ever removed from its home. I only take what I need, in addition to picking up any plastics or trash I find along the way.

When I'm at the beach, I typically spend 4-6 hours a day beachcombing. This usually amounts to about 4-8 miles of walking depending on how much time I spend in each shell bed. My finds are washed, soaked, washed again, and when necessary, dipped in a diluted acid bath. I never add oil to my shells. Every piece has been meticulously planned, laid out, readjusted, and then, usually, readjusted again for the perfect fit. These pieces are a labor of love in every way - I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
