Now that we've seen the paper cup that isn't a paper cup in order to reduce waste, how about plastic bottles that aren't plastic bottles? Italian design house Seletti has created glass water bottles made to look like the plastic water bottles we use then dump. Because they're glass, I doubt they're meant for us to throw into our backpacks and take with us, so they don't necessarily help us reduce our waste of portable plastic bottled water, but at a holding capacity of 1 liter each, they're great for serving water or other beverages at the table or bar.
Available from Lekker Home for $38 a bottle. Comes in four different designs.

Sarah- I just don't get these bottles. The design isn't the most stable. The cutouts and rounded edges on the bottom are an accident waiting to happen. How many times have you knocked over a plastic water bottle? I know I have, but with no worries because unless they fall from a height on to a hard surface they won't break. But these are glass... I predict they won't be around for long. In more ways than one.
