Not Lost Jewellery: Seaglass Stories from the Solent Shore
Charlotte runs Not Lost Jewellery from her base in Lee-on-the-Solent, drawing on her Devon roots and passion for the sea to create pieces that blend natural finds with recycled silver. She forages for seaglass along local beaches, turning these wave-worn fragments into bracelets, necklaces and earrings that carry the essence of the ocean.
Each item is handmade, with options for custom work like incorporating personal shells or designing family-themed pendants. The focus stays on sustainability, using plastic-free packaging and repurposed materials to keep environmental impact low.
Pieces start from affordable seaglass studs, rising to bespoke commissions that might feature rare colours or intricate wirework.
Standouts include tile-patterned necklaces inspired by Solent shores, or bangles that echo the curve of pebbles.
Charlotte’s dog, Chief, often features in her social media as the unofficial seaglass scout, adding a personal touch to the brand’s story.
Beyond the core collection, the business offers one-off items from unusual finds, like frosted glass in teal or lavender hues sourced from nearby tides. Commissions form a big part of the work, with customers sending in their own beach treasures for transformation into wearable keepsakes. Online shopping covers the full range, but popping into the occasional pop-up shop in town lets you see the textures up close.
