The glass is convex on one side/concave on the other.

I would love to know how old it is or something about probable origins...
I am now newly hooked on sea glass...spent all my time on moonstones/shells before!
 
Do you know of anyone in my area Clovis/Fresno CA who has an interest in sea glass, or the rocks found on the beaches here? 

Knowing nothing about lapidary/geology to speak of, I would love to learn more about it, locally if possible.

 Round red piece
by: Amy

I have a beautiful red piece that is round just like yours.

First piece of sea glass I ever found, and it just happened to be red!

I was interested in knowing what causes the pieces to be rounded as well...

I have a one identical to the picture in teal blue. I believe it could be the top section of an old insulator.

I have found round pieces as well, some still have a short stem on them , bottle stoppers.Some just don't have any sigh of the stem left.

Do you think that it could be the bottom of an old soda bottle?
