About Us
We are Beach Art Glass - inspired by the sea, crafted by hand, made in Britain.
At Beach Art Glass, we create handmade glass jewellery using the ancient art of lampwork. Every bead begins with the finest glass sourced from Murano, Italy, and is finished with locally sourced silver hand-forged right here in the UK.
Each piece is individually crafted with love, care, and attention to detail. While no two are exactly alike, our perfected patterns and techniques ensure every piece is beautifully made to last a lifetime.
We don’t just make jewellery — we craft collections that capture the magic of the coast. From the cool mist of sea spray to the vivid hues of the deep ocean, our designs are inspired by the places that stay with you long after you've left the shore. Our jewellery lets you wear your favourite beach memories every day.
Meet The Team
Julie - founder and lampwork artist
Julie has been creating lampwork beads for over 17 years, combining traditional skills with her own creative designs.
At Beach Art Glass, every single glass bead and every piece of jewellery is personally designed, handmade, carefully packed, and posted by Julie herself.
From the first spark of an idea to the moment your parcel lands in your hands, you're holding something truly crafted with love, skill, and personal care.
"When I first began making lampwork beads in 2007, I couldn’t have imagined how glass would become my way of life — taking me all over the world.
I hope my jewellery reminds you of the places you love, the memories you treasure, or inspires you to plan your next adventure, toes in the sand and heart full of wonder."

What Our Customers Say
"I have purchased a few items from Julie at Beach Art Glass, each one has been amazing. The attention to detail on each bead is amazing. I love the beach and the sea and when I can’t physically be present on the coast Julie’s jewellery takes me back there. Her beads are exquisite. I will definitely be ordering more. Her customer service and involvement is also second to none."
"I love Beach Art Glass. I have been a customer for many years. The product range, innovation and quality is superb and the order handling, packaging and delivery unbeatable. Julie's personal touch is the added bonus - every customer is made to feel that they are the number one."
"I’ve bought several of Julie’s bracelets and drops over the last few years and am delighted when I see new ones and other designs too. All lovely and the quality and clarity of the glass are a joy.
