About Us

The Little Beachcomber is the result of what happens when a SoCal girl's seashell collection reaches a certain point.

What started as a passion for beach walks and spotting beautiful things along the way has evolved into a small business that shares the whimsy of wearable seashells with ocean-enthusiasts near and far.

All pieces are handmade and designed in Orange County, California.

Frequently asked questions

What is the return policy?

We guarantee a 100% refund on all returned orders. We want all customers to be happy with their purchase, so if your item arrives damages or otherwise inconsistent with your expectations, we accept returns for a full refund.

Are the pieces waterproof/tarnish-resistant?

It is important to us that the precious seashells used in our pieces are paired with metals that can stand the test of time.

All metals used for our chains, earring posts, findings, fasteners, and jewelry wire are either 14K gold-filled or sterling silver. Both materials are considered water-resistant, but it is recommended that they are stored in a dry, enclosed environment to prevent tarnish over long periods of time.

One way to think about it: safe to shower with, but probably best to avoid swimming with consistently.

How quickly will receive my order?

We ship items out the next business day after the order is placed. Depending on the shipping option you choose, you can expect the shipping timeframe to align with the business day after your place your order.

You can also track your order's delivery information via the Shop app after checkout.

Where are your materials sourced?

Our chains and other jewelry components are sourced locally in Orange County, CA.

Freshwater pearls are sourced secondhand from estate sales, broken or otherwise damaged pieces, etc.

Seashells are sourced mostly on local Orange County, CA beaches, however some are sourced from other coastlines that we've traveled to.
