Sea Glass is a new collection of handcrafted mosaic. Created by Sara Baldwin for New Ravenna, Sea Glass is inspired by walks along the Eastern Shore of Virginia, where Baldwin would find pieces of glass “smoothed by years of waves and sand.” The eight patterns depict natural elements, as well as ornamental motifs. Aurelia, Chinoiserie, Folia, and Plum Blossom are florals, each with its own style and scale. Chinoiserie of course has an oriental flavor, with intricate trees, flowers, and birds. Folia is simpler, a decidedly delicate pattern with sinuous lines. Dune, Clouds, and Tempest use small rectangular pieces to simulate their namesakes. All Sea Glass mosaic is custom created to size each installation; the designs come in over 70 glass colors.
