South Downs National Park Bead Portugal

South Downs National Park Bead PortugalWe are so excited to finally be able to share these amazing new beads for all 15 National Parks around the UK with you! The wonderful South Downs is the gateway to England, famous for its mile upon mile of rolling green hills and impressive chalk cliffs. This bead is inspired by the grassy topped hills that make way to its searing chalk cliffs. The bead is made up entirely of a green glass called Grasshopper which is then rolled carefully over two

It is also well known for its rock pools

The inspiration behind this bead was to capture the continuous waves rolling into Anglet

This colour was chosen to represent the colour of the sea

green volcanic mountains and turquoise waters

Our Cork Wrap is a length of flat stitched cork which has been sourced from Portugal where it is organically and sustainably grown and harvested

The bead is then decorated in a handmade frit (tiny shards of glass) the colours within this frit represent the colours found within the grasses along the dunes and coastline

You'll find a variety of breaks here

It is a sandy beach that stretches for almost 5 miles and is the only sand dune system in East Sussex

landmarks such as Durdle door and Lulworth cove

It sits within the Gulf Stream so the temperature is mild most the year round

which contains shades of Ivories and greys

Don't worry
