Vancouver Island Orca Sea Glass Sculpture
This one of a kind artisan piece features a leaping orca crafted from recycled glass, soaring above a base of authentic Vancouver Island driftwood. The entire design is accented with genuine local sea glass, creating a sustainable tribute to our marine environment.
- Handmade on Vancouver Island: Created with care in Parksville, BC.
- Artisan Materials: Crafted using a recycled glass orca and hand-picked Vancouver Island sea glass.

- Pure Copper Detail: The orca is mounted on a pure copper wire, chosen for its durability and warm, metallic glow that complements the natural wood.
- Professional Finish: The driftwood base is conditioned with a blend of beeswax and orange oil that enhances the natural grain and protects the wood from drying or cracking.

Symbolic Meaning
The orca is a deeply respected symbol of the Pacific Northwest, representing family, community, and the enduring bonds of kin. As a protector of the ocean, it embodies power and intelligence.
The sea glass and driftwood used in this piece further symbolize resilience and transformation. Just as these materials have been weathered and renewed by the tides, this sculpture serves as a beautiful reminder of the capacity to overcome adversity and find beauty in life’s journey.
