Bahtrinco · Handmade jewelry & sea glass from Nassau, Bahamas
Shallow water on a Bahamian beach

Bahtrinco

Made by hand in Nassau, from what the island gives us.

Shot on the beach

Back where it came from.

Every piece is small enough to sit in a conch shell. Here they are on the sand they were made beside. Tap one to watch.

Wood earrings

The island, small enough to wear.

Turtles, rays, hibiscus, conch, palms. Each design is drawn, cut and sanded in the workshop, then finished by hand so the edges are smooth against the skin.

They weigh almost nothing, which matters in this heat, and they pack flat in a suitcase. Because the grain runs differently through every piece, no two pairs come out quite the same.

New designs go up often. If you want a shape we don't make — a boat, a crest, a name — ask us.

Sea glass

From a bottle on the roadside.

There isn't enough sea glass on Bahamian beaches to make jewelry from — so we make our own. Discarded bottles, collected here, tumbled for days until they come out soft-edged and frosted.

Green from beer, brown from rum, clear and blue from whatever the island drank last year. Nothing is dyed.

It's slow. The tumbler decides when a piece is ready, not us — which is why there are never many finished at once, and why no two are the same.

How it's made

Cut, shaped and finished by hand.

Collected

Bottles gathered around Nassau and sorted by colour. Wood chosen for grain, not for speed.

Shaped

Designs drawn in the workshop and cut in-house. Glass goes in the tumbler for days, not minutes.

Finished

Sanded, assembled and checked by hand, one piece at a time. That's why a custom run takes days — and why it looks made, not stamped out.
