This collection is our recognition of this essential initiative. Made from the lower portion of a Bordeaux bottle.
They are gorgeous, and they are completely recycled! Repurposed from the beautiful and unique bottles of the Bordeaux region of France, these glasses are a great conversation piece with a great story. Plus, you're keeping them out of a landfill. Good for you!
This cheerful recycled glassware will add delight to any beverage!
Choose from clear or frosted with no design, clear or frosted with design.
Comes in a set of 4.
Made from ordinary bottles that were headed toward the landfill, the glass is transformed into stylish, unique goblets and tumblers.
The transformation begins when our supplier receives bottles from recyclers all over North America, The bottles are washed and sterilized. The bottle is separated into two components; 'head' & 'base' . The 'head' (upper portion of the bottle) and 'base' (lower portion of the bottle) are smoothed, and then fire polished. The base becomes a tumbler or goblet. The neck is then heated, twisted to close it off and finally the original mouth of the bottle is 'flared' to form the new foot of the glass. The newly formed tumblers and goblets then travel through an annealing (tempering) oven to remove all residual stress in the glass.
Goblets: 8.5 oz
Tumblers: 11 oz
