If yes, it’s time to upgrade to upcycled glass.
At Kavi Poetry Art, we believe sustainability doesn’t have to be boring. Our range of upcycled glass products made from discarded liquor bottles is the perfect blend of functionality, art, and eco-consciousness.

The Plastic Problem: A Quick Reality Check
Let’s start with some facts that might surprise you:

A single plastic jar can take up to 1,000 years to decompose in a landfill.

Microplastics from containers seep into food and drinks, posing serious health hazards.
Given this backdrop, replacing plastic jars with upcycled jars isn’t just an aesthetic upgrade—it’s a health and environmental necessity.

Why Choose Upcycled Glass Over Plastic?
1. Sustainability at Its Core:
Upcycled glass products significantly reduce waste by reusing materials that would otherwise end up in landfills. At Kavi Poetry Art, we rescue liquor bottles like Grey Goose, Absolut, and Old Monk, turning them into stunning pieces for your home.
2. Aesthetic Appeal Meets Functionality:
Glass is timeless, and when artistically repurposed, it becomes a statement piece. Our Kavi Grey Goose Bottle Jars are perfect examples—chic, minimal, and versatile enough to hold spices, flowers, or your favourite bath salts.
3. Non-Toxic and Food-Safe:
Unlike plastic, glass doesn’t leach harmful chemicals into your food or beverages. Our Eco-friendly Absolut Bottle Sippers offer a safe, stylish way to enjoy your drinks while making a sustainable statement.
4. Durability and Reusability:
Glass can be reused endlessly without losing quality. With proper care, our upcycled glasses last for years, making them a better long-term investment than plastic containers.
