About Ruth Beattie jewelry is inspired by nature. Designer, Allison Culbertson, aka RB, hand selects every bead, stone and finding. Her jewelry is made by hand in her Hudson Studio, Olivia on Warren. Her organic handwoven style creates both delicate and bold designs and makes each piece beautiful, unique and personal. Brooklyn Bridge beach glass collection™ The journey of a bottle has a message all its own. It comes full circle, metaphorical of a life. Rediscovered, it gets a second chance. From sand, it is produced, used, under appreciated, tossed, broken, carted away and sometimes recycled. But, it is often dumped, only to end up in the sea once again and back into sand. Beach glass. Now, with its new identity, the glass, the former bottle, is looked upon as treasure. It is said that it takes up to a year for a shard of glass to become a piece of beach glass. It has a story. It has taken a journey. It is starting anew. It is collected, and often placed on a window sill, or in a glass jar to admire. A reminder of a happy moment, a quiet time souvenir. The journey and the story is the inspiration for the Brooklyn Bridge beach glass collection™. The beach from which it comes makes it that much more special. All of the beach glass used in RB designs originates from a beach beneath the Brooklyn Bridge. Many come to walk across, sail under, fly over or photograph the bridge. But, Ruth Beattie goes beneath the majestic bridge at ebb tide to select the storied treasure, and then adds a chapter to that story. From broken shard to admirable pendant, to ...your story. Go ahead, add a chapter. If everything in life could be as simple as admiring a piece of beach glass. Sometimes we forget. RB hopes that the piece you select - helps you to remember.
