Eco-Friendly Gifts

recycled glass vases

Giving feels good - but giving a gift that’s easy on the environment feels even better. Here are a few gift ideas for the eco-conscious person in your life. (Wrap them up in recycled paper for even more bonus points!)

RECYCLED GLASS GLASSWARE & DECOR

We love using recycled glass to craft glassware, decor and lighting because it preserves raw resources, reduces emissions and saves energy. Give your favorite home bartender a set of glasses from our Santino Collection. Handcrafted by artisans in Mexico, each wine glass, highball glass and margarita glass takes 20 minutes to make, resulting in a one-of-a-kind shape. Surprise spa lovers with a recycled glass candle pot that smells of mood-boosting nectarine, and reflects the light beautifully. The minimalist in your life will appreciate a handblown recycled glass vase with a simple yet elegant shape. (Fill it with faux botanicals for an extra touch.)

FOUND DOUGH BOWLS & DECOR

Our designers scour the globe seeking inspiration, from Paris flea markets to Istanbul bazaars. Sometimes they find a vintage collection so incredible, they purchase every piece for Pottery Barn. For the person who appreciates objects with a story and a soul, opt for a hand-carved wooden bowl with roots that go back to the 20th century, when Eastern European bakers used them to make bread each morning. They’ll also love one of these vintage wooden sleds, once used by children in the German countryside and the Austrian alps. Crafted of European hardwood with the original metal hardware, each sled is unique. For the collector, opt for a vintage oversized wine bottle that was once used to store wine or sunflower oil.

ORGANIC BEDDING & TOWELS

Everyone can benefit from organic linens, which are crafted with cotton grown without harmful chemicals and pesticides. Contribute to a loved one’s healthy home by giving them a set of supersoft organic sheets in a classic shade or nostalgic holiday print. Or, spoil them with plush, absorbent organic bath towels woven to a fluffy 600-gram-weight in Turkey. Whether you choose an organic sheet set, an organic towel set or both, you’ll be giving an everyday luxury - a gift that keeps on giving.
