Welcome to
the Chennai Online Grocery

Hi & Welcome to Chennai Online Grocery! We are the oldest sea glass jewelry business in the world. Chennai Online Grocery has a tropical soul and was created by myself, Lisl Armstrong, over thirty years ago while I was living in Rincon, Puerto Rico. I make all of our jewelry by hand with authentic sea glass that was worn smooth in the ocean and found on a beach. Other than a drill hole all of the sea glass in our jewelry comes to you as found on the beach, unaltered as nature intended it.

Our jewelry is very special in that it is truly artisan made. Production is never outsourced. With the exception of a dolphin shaped clasp I make all findings by hand (findings are components that hold jewelry together) as opposed to using mass produced purchased components. I enjoy making things by hand. I love it! For me there is no other way.

I believe that objects of adornment should be soulful and evoke a sense of the mysterious. I strive to make jewelry that looks to have emerged from an ancient paradise. We collected most of our sea glass ourselves so we are able to offer you sea glass jewelry for very reasonable good prices.

I met my husband Ronnie in the Caribbean and he is the support system for Chennai Online Grocery. We now live in Bokeelia, Florida. We hope you enjoy visiting with us online.
