Hi, I’m Taylor.
Coastal Found began as a quiet dream - a return to making, meaning, and the sea.
This is my story, and I’m so happy you’re here.
Sea Origins
Coastal Found was born from a deep love of creating - and the quiet magic of things shaped by the sea.
After years of dreaming about a more hands-on, creative life, I returned to college to study, reset, and reconnect with what truly matters: making, meaning, and building something of my own.
This brand is the result of that decision - a slower path, inspired by solo travels, coastal walks, and the soft treasures left behind by the tide.
Every piece of sea glass or shell you’ll find here has been hand-picked from beaches in Devon, Cornwall, Australia and parts of Asia. Some were found on rainy walks close to home. Others came from sun-washed shores I wandered alone - collecting fragments, and finding peace.
Coastal Found is about what’s been lost, softened, and found again - and lovingly transformed into something new.
The Process
-
Made slowly, by hand, with heart.
-
1. Found
Sea glass and shells are carefully gathered from UK coastlines and distant shores - often found on solo journeys.
-
2. Curated
Each piece is gently cleaned, sorted, and matched - chosen for tone, shape, and quiet beauty.
-
3. Crafted
Jewellery is hand-formed using slow, mindful silversmithing techniques - like bezel setting and sand-casting.
Always small batch. Never rushed.
-
4. Scented
Every order includes a small surprise - a delicately scented scallop shell candle, poured in small batches as a thank-you.
-
5. Wrapped
Orders are sent simply and sustainably - sealed with scent and a sense of shoreline stillness.
-
Inspired by the sea. Created with care. Found on a path back to myself.
