Lowcountry Oyster Jewelry

Coastal classics + colorful sea glass designs

Welcome. So glad you're here!

I'm Jennifer Matthews, founder of Island Oyster.

Each piece I create starts with shells I collect along the Charleston coast. I love combining my love of shells, sea glass and the perfectly imperfect mix of 'rugged meets refined '.

My hope is that you find the unique blend of nature and elegance that embodies life on the inter-coastal and this charming town represented in these small-batch, curated collections.

Classic + Timeless

Jewelry + gifts crafted with a love of the Lowcounty and beauty, symbolism and history they hold.

The relaxed blues of harbor, the earthy tones + texture of the shore, the bright hues of Charleston sunsets on the water.

We're celebrating the charm and laid-back marsh-life with each handcrafted piece o carry with you.

We love happy customers!

  • We visit Charleston every year, and always love to return with local gifts. The oyster shell bracelet reminds me of my favorite beach.
