About

Suddenly Seaglass is a small art and design studio run by maker Shawnna Hodgson, specialising in one-of-a-kind lamps, vases, and wind chimes made from authentic sea glass collected by hand from Sydney's Northern Beaches.

Bottles break, but what was once cast out into the tides returns with a wiser, more textured appearance, ready to be repurposed with a fresh narrative and newfound significance.

Suddenly Seaglass began as a way for me to share light—both metaphorically and physically—with friends and family. A sense of tranquility is at the heart of each step of the process, from combing the local beaches to sorting the glass by colour, curve, and size. Each piece is thoughtfully arranged, resulting in a unique work of art that brings warmth and light into your home.
