The sea glass on Teignmouth beach has been formed over many centuries as Teignmouth has been a working port for a long time. The glass is predominantly white with bluish tints. There are some green pieces too, but these are mainly thin glass and not very attractive as they have not been worn by tidal action for as long as the white and bluish pieces. I can collect around 30 acceptable pieces a week. I discard those pieces which have sharp edges, unless they have some interesting marking or shape. There are a few blue and dark green or brown pieces, but these are very rare.
