Gizeco – From recycled sustainable glass to handcrafted decorative objects

INTRODUCTION

Artistic, Creative, Unique & Sustainable…

It all starts with a jar or bottle…just think of all the empty glass items you put into your recycling every week.

Did you know only half of household items like jars and bottles don’t get re-melted back to glass but are recycled as aggregate or are lost to landfill or incineration.

A literal waste of an eco friendly and sustainable resource!

A large proportion of my products are from

Recycled bottles and jars…most of which you will find in almost every UK kitchen cupboard.

All recycled glass is sourced locally and up-cycled glass within the UK – which goes towards reducing my carbon footprint.

Between 3-18 July 2021, I exhibited and sold a selection of my glassware for the first time at St Saviours, E17 8EP, a beautiful Grade II Listed church. This venue was part of the 2021 E17 Art Trail – https://e17arttrail.co.uk – see photo below.

New works are added as I make them – watch this space for engraved gin, whisky, pint and shot glasses, bracelets, Suncatchers and more!

Each piece is different – even if the design is similar it will not be identical…you will notice that for most items there is only one available in my shop – this is because I don’t mass produce anything, everything is made by hand and each piece is unique…if an item is out of stock…similar items are continuously being added to my website.

Available now a limited new range of lanterns and unique decorative plant pots that include succulents and cacti home grown in my father’s greenhouse.
