Bottled Up Designs by Laura Bergman is a remarkable line of jewelry made from antique glass and bottles reclaimed from antique bottle dumps throughout natural wooded habitats and rural farmlands. This is done in an effort to help the environment and protect wildlife by removing this hazard. It is a truly unique way to preserve the past while helping the future.
Each piece is handmade from this antique glass and comes with “The Story of the Glass” detailing what the glass was originally and the age of the piece and mounted on recycled card stock. Most of the pieces are created through coldworking processes, or as in the case of the glass hoops and Christmas ornaments, with some kiln work.
