What are Sea-ramics?

Sea-ramics are the porcelain equivalent of sea glass. At some point a plate, cup, etc. – or the broken remains thereof, made its way into the ocean and tumbled for an untold time.

Sea-ramics Seem Rare

As far as I can tell, these pieces are more rare than sea glass – at least at our beach. The “wack” factor in that assessment is the relative plenitude of white rocks and shell bits. These pieces may be as common, or be more so, than sea glass, but its touch to investigate every white “thing” on the beach.

Finding Sea-ramics

I found these pieces of sea-ramics a few years ago. They were very near each other. I haven’t found any others, despite looking consistently. During some outings, I focus exclusively on sea-ramics. I’m hoping I may even find some milk glass sea glass in the process.

In well known “target-rich environments” we’ve found well worn shards of earthenware that have the look of salt-glazed jugs. They frequently have that tan-grey color on one side and brown on the other.
