Tumbled Sea Glass for Crafts & Jewelry

This tumbled sea glass starts as recovered vintage glass, old bottles, jars, and household glass rescued from New York City beaches and historic landfill sites, then finished in a machine tumbler in Brooklyn until it reaches that smooth, frosted sea glass look. It's the material of choice for sea glass jewelry making, sea glass mosaic projects, resin art, and wedding decor, consistent enough to design with, but still carrying the color variation and occasional embossed lettering that make each batch one of a kind.

FAQs

What's the difference between tumbled glass and genuine sea glass?

Genuine sea glass is ocean-tumbled by decades of surf and sand. Tumbled glass starts as recovered vintage material and is finished in-house to a similar smooth, frosted look, more uniform and consistently available for larger projects.

Is tumbled glass good for jewelry making?

Yes. Its consistent size and smooth finish make it easier to work with for jewelry, mosaics, and resin art than genuine sea glass, which varies more in shape.
