The Nusa Hand Blown Glass Bowl on Driftwood Base combines recycled glass with natural reclaimed teak root or driftwood, creating a sculptural centerpiece handmade in Bali, Indonesia. The molten glass is blown directly onto the wood, taking on the contours of its individual base. Each piece has its own shape and character.

Hand-blown glass, shaped by nature

Clear glass follows the uneven surface of the wood beneath it, contrasting smooth, light-catching curves with a weathered, organic base. Because each reclaimed wood base is different, no two Nusa bowls are exactly alike. Variations in the glass profile, wood grain, color, and texture are part of the design.

A natural centerpiece for everyday living

Place Nusa on a coffee table, dining table, or entryway console to bring a quiet focal point to the room. Leave it empty to appreciate the glass and wood, or create a personal display with white sand and seashells. Its transparent form pairs naturally with linen, woven textures, and timber in coastal, modern organic, and resort-inspired interiors.

The bowl can also be styled as an open succulent terrarium or with aquatic plants, as described in its original product information. Choose a planting setup suited to the plants and vessel; water-holding capacity and drainage specifications are not provided.

Materials and craftsmanship

  • Glass: Hand-blown recycled glass.
  • Base: Natural reclaimed teak root or driftwood.
  • Origin: Handmade in Bali, Indonesia, using traditional molten-glass techniques.
  • Design: Glass individually shaped to the contours of its wood base.
  • Use: Decorative bowl, vase-style display, tabletop centerpiece, or open terrarium.

Available sizes

  • Small: Approximately 6 × 6 × 6 inches.
  • Medium: Approximately 8 × 8 × 8 inches.
  • Large: Approximately 12 × 12 × 12 inches.

Measurements are approximate. The natural wood base and individually blown glass mean the overall shape and dimensions vary from piece to piece.

Care

Hand wash the glass only. Wipe the wood with a soft, dry cloth.

Subtle variations in color, texture, and finish are expected in this handcrafted piece. These differences are part of its individual character and are not considered defects.

I strongly support small businesses and independent artists, which is why I shop on Etsy. I also take responsibility for accidentally missing the nearly $50 shipping charge when checking out with Apple Pay.

However, within minutes of placing the order, I contacted the seller and requested cancellation. I was told I needed to cancel it myself, despite Etsy requiring sellers to process cancellations. The seller claimed canceling would hurt their shop and told me to contact Etsy instead. Before I could pursue that option, the order was shipped the next day.

The product is fine, but the customer service was disappointing. Over $100 for such a small item feels excessive, and I would not purchase from this seller again. Shortly after I purchased a similar piece 3x the size for only $50 ($0 shipping fee) from a competitor.

I can only imagine the quality of the item was good, based on the pictures, because unfortunately the glass was in many pieces upon arrival. That being said, the seller absolutely FAILED to properly package the item for a safe transit. I t was relatively quick to arrive, but useless in it's current condition. I contacted the seller as soon as I realized it was broken, they replied once, requesting pictures of the item, and that they want me to ship it back to them for replacement, I supplied the pictures, and haven't heard back since.
If/ when they correct the issue, I will adjust my review. Currently I've got a glass jigsaw puzzle, and need to quickly find a replacement gift for my wife, for Mothers Day.

I absolutely love this molten glass driftwood, decor. The glass is very thick, which I love, because it wouldn't be easy to break, it was packaged very well & yes the item matched the description (not the picture, to be expected). I can't stress how beautiful of a piece this item is. I ordered it to display my sea shells & will likely buy more of these!! Thank you!!!

Item received was damaged. Unable to connect with seller as Etsy dispute center won’t allow me to send pictures — have tried several Times today! Just keeps buffering pictures I’ve uploaded.
Aside from damage, hoped to receive a replacement glass bowl, but cannot send request to seller due to Etsy site. Think I would just like to return & get a refund at this
Point as it’s too frustrating dealing with this issue. Don’t think I’ll be purchasing anything on Etsy again.

This is absolutely awesome, would have paid 2x and been happy. It is a little larger than expected but it works great in my space. Might recommend adding some dimensions to the description for future customers. Love it!!!!

I ordered one of these and it arrived with a decent sized chip out of the wood. Reached out to the seller who off the bat said "they didnt feel it was very big" and to get a replacement, I would have to pay for shipping. I questioned this and they ended up sending me a label. I packed and shipped it back, but the seller never went through with sending a replacement and Etsy customer service had to give me a refund.

Buyer Beware!

Just as described. Very nice.
