Find of the Year, Mystic: Andrew Wells
Andrew found this gorgeous amberina stopper in Rhode Island. It’s beautiful in the sunlight and even more spectacular glowing under blacklight.
Find of the Year, Seattle: Lynn Evelyn
Lynn’s beautiful sea glass find glows beautifully under blacklight, but amazingly continues to glow even after the UV flashlight is turned off.
