A frosted blue glass duck - soft and coastal, with a gently weathered sea-glass look.

Handmade in my Saltburn-by-the-Sea studio, these frosted glass ducks have a soft, sea-glass-like surface created through a gentle tumbling process using sand grit and water.

Each duck is first shaped by hand in molten glass using lampworking techniques. Once cooled and annealed, it’s placed in a tumbler where the surface is gradually softened, removing the shine and creating a smooth, matt finish that’s lovely to touch.

The frosted surface diffuses light rather than reflecting it, giving these ducks a calm, understated presence. They work beautifully in coastal-inspired interiors, on shelves and windowsills, or among plants where their softened finish complements natural textures.

Small and tactile, they’re designed as quiet decorative pieces — simple forms that invite handling and close looking. As each duck is made and finished individually, every one is slightly different.

    • Handmade in Saltburn-by-the-Sea, Yorkshire

    • Created using lampworking techniques

    • Made from transparent glass with a smooth, glossy finish

    • Approx. 22mm beak to tail, 16mm wide, 18mm tall

    • Each duck is unique; variations are part of the handmade process

    • Each duck is supplied in a small metal tin with an information leaflet about how it was made and where it comes from.

 Frosted ducks have a different finish to transparent and opaque — many people enjoy displaying the three finishes together to explore how glass behaves when light, surface and texture change.
