PROTECT OUR WATER GLASSES - SET OF 4


This product is environmentally friendly. Click icon for more information. The third in the "Protect Our World" series, these striking, deep blue glasses are made from the bottom halves of wine bottles rescued before reaching the landfill. A beautifully silk-screened design of swimming fish accompanies the words "Protect Our Waters," written in four languages: English, Spanish, Afrikaans/South African and French. Made in Wisconsin. Each is one-of-a-kind and will vary.

Complete your collection with Protect Our Earth, Protect Our Air, and Protect Our Wildlife glasses.

Uncommon Knowledge: Each year, roughly 300 tons of glass bottles are donated by wineries and recycling organizations across the country to be turned into glasses like these. And because they are made from prefab bottles that don't need to be crushed or melted, the glasses use less energy to create than normal glassware.

Comments about PROTECT OUR WATER GLASSES - SET OF 4:

We received one of the other sets of glasses as a wedding gift; I loved them so much my husband bought me this set for my birthday to add to the collection. We use these as our everyday glasses and they're perfect. We've had them since December 2008 and they're still great looking and durable. No cracks or chips. I have 2 sets so far and would like to purchase the other sets.

Comments about PROTECT OUR WATER GLASSES - SET OF 4:

These recycled wine bottle glasses are fun and great conversation starters...environmentally sound but expensive (four glasses for [$])...got fave reviews from my spouse(52) down to our youngest (15)On the other hand, my Mother-in-Law (87) cannot believe we paid [$] each for four wine glasses WITHOUT THE WINE!
