harunasugie is the glass jewelry project making accessories feel more like personal objects than finishing touches. Led by Aichi-born artist Haruna Sugie, the label works through rings, ear cuffs, mirror surfaces, and body-focused forms that sit somewhere between jewelry and wearable art. It’s delicate at first glance, but the ideas underneath are much sharper.
The pieces are made with borosilicate glass, a material known for being transparent, lightweight, and resistant to breakage. That gives the jewelry its almost liquid sense of shape, from the HIFU series to the SUGATA mirror rings and SHIBOU pieces that turn ideas around skin, identity, and the body into something you can actually wear. The warped surfaces make rings feel less like decoration and more like a tiny confrontation with how you see yourself.
That’s why harunasugie feels right for the current accessories conversation. Fashion is moving past jewelry as a simple outfit add-on, and this work pushes the category into a more intimate place: glass against skin, reflection against body, object against self-image. The appeal isn’t just that the pieces look unusual. It’s that they make jewelry feel connected to mood, memory, and the parts of getting dressed that are harder to explain.
Brand DNA
Aichi-born Haruna Sugie creates glass jewelry shaped by lampwork, turning ideas around lookism, bodies, and self-image into translucent rings and ear cuffs with offbeat volume, playful distortion, and art-school bite.
