'''Sea pottery''' (also known as '''sea china''', '''sea porcelain''' or '''beach pottery''') is [[pottery]] that is broken into worn pieces and shards and found on [[beach]]es along [[ocean]]s or large [[lake]]s. Sea pottery has been tumbled and smoothed by the water and sand, creating small pieces of smooth, frosted pottery. It is often collected with more common [[sea glass]] by [[beachcombing|beachcombers]].Richard LaMotte, "Pure Sea Glass," (Chestertown, MD: Sea Glass Publishing, 2004).
