The Sapphire x Llewelyn Ash Collection

Beautiful Australian art with meaning, created in support of The Sapphire Project.

We’re excited to introduce a special new collaboration to Contemporary Co.

Each piece is individually handblown by Llewelyn, making every work unique, with subtle variations in form, colour and texture.

Proceeds from each piece support The Sapphire Project and its work to protect and restore Australia’s marine ecosystems.

“We ordered the Lucky Drop Awards for our annual staff awards and they were absolutely beautiful. Each piece felt unique and incredibly special, and the quality of the handblown glass was even better in person. The timber base and personalised plaque finished them perfectly. Our recipients loved them and we received so many comments on the night. We’ll definitely be ordering again.”
