R60.00R260.00

Trendy and atmospheric – that’s what these funky, earth-friendly glasses are! They are made from waste booze bottles, hand-cut, meticulously sanded down to a smooth, safe edge and polished to perfection.

Whenever possible, original bottle labels are preserved, bringing a whimsical, one-of-a-kind charm to every piece. These tumblers not only look great but also contribute to resource conservation by giving glass a second life before recycling. Talk about a conversation starter!,

Material Notes

Even though glass is infinitely recyclable and chemically stable, the recycling process is quite energy intensive. If waste glass can be reused or repurposed before being recycled, that is much more energy efficient than simply sending it for recycling after first use. After reaching the end of their useful life, these glass tumblers can still be sent for recycling.
