Leadlight jewellery boxes and containers have become a collectable art form, and are often commissioned as a special occasion gift or memorial. Each piece is unique, conventional or abstract, designed to suit the personality of the recipient. Many of these jewellery boxes use for the handle, a scrap of ocean polished glass or china. This is collected from two sites close to Hobart. One is a beach near the spot where a 19th century ship went down with a cargo of china. The other is the site of an old bottle dump on the eastern shore at Bellerive that has been transformed over time into a tiny, tranquil cove filled with clattering shingle made up of almost as much glass and china as rock.
