What Makes It Uncommon

Single-use bottles and cans often end their lives as litter, but artist Mike Garman sees an opportunity to start a conversation instead. Hand-cast in small batches from concrete and recycled glass, these sculptural vases transform familiar discarded objects into unexpected works of art. Fill one with fresh blooms or foraged branches to create a striking contrast between the beauty of nature and the waste we leave behind.

Choose from Soda Can, Water Bottle, or Milk Jug vase styles.
Hand-cast in small batches from concrete and recycled glass, giving each vase a one-of-a-kind speckled finish.
Designed by artist Mike Garman to spark conversations about waste and environmental stewardship.
Vendor donates 10% of sales to organizations that clean up ocean waste.
Handmade in Texas.

Please note: We recommend lifting the Milk Jug Vase by its base rather than its handle due to its weight.

Texas

Born and raised outside Houston, Texas, Mike Garman combines his background in architecture and fine arts to create home goods that are equal parts functional and fun. After studying at the Rhode Island School of Design, he began experimenting with concrete as a creative medium, pushing it beyond traditional uses through years of trial, error, and refinement. Mike handcrafts each piece in small batches, often incorporated recycled glass and stone that are locally sourced near his Houston studio. His playful designs transform familiar forms into unexpected objects that bring artistry to everyday spaces.
