    What Minerals Create Blue Sea Glass

    Blue Sea Glass

    Blue sea glass is made from glass that contains cobalt, which is a metallic element with a distinctive blue color. Cobalt is often used to create blue pigments and dyes, and it has also been used in the production of glass for many centuries.
     
    When cobalt is added to the molten glass mixture, it reacts with the other minerals in the glass to produce a blue color. The intensity of the blue color depends on the amount of cobalt that is used, as well as the other minerals present in the glass.
     
    Blue sea glass is not as uncommon as you would think, although it is not as abundant as clear or green sea glass. It is often found in shades of light to medium blue, although deeper shades of blue are also possible.
