About

We at Upcycled Bottle Art create one-of-a-kind, multifunctional platters and cheese boards by flattening and reshaping wine bottles. The versatile dishes can be used to serve cheese & olives, dips & chips, nuts & fruits, candies, sushi - you name it! In a cook's or foodie's kitchen, they are also used as a spoon rest. 

Upycled Bottle Art products are the perfect gift or a "little something" for any foodie or wine-lover; a bride and groom, hostess, colleague or as a housewarming present. They are true conversation pieces and offer many talking points every time they are used; during a dinner party, family gathering, wine night with friends or while watching a game.

We cooperate with and support local businesses by collecting empty wine, beer and liquor bottles from our favorite neighbourhood restaurants and bars. 

The recycled bottles are reshaped in a kiln and crafted into platters and dishes. Our studio and kiln are powered by solar cells in combination with a solar-fed Tesla Powerwall battery system. In addition, we take great care in using recycled and/or recyclable materials for our packaging and choose a carbon-neutral shipping partner whenever possible.

Made in Sydney, Australia

Upcycled Bottle Art is a by-product from the glass art studio of Gisela Spallek who began to  use kiln "down-time" to melt and reshape bottles about 6 years ago.

In her art practice, Gisela is working with stained and fused glass, designing and creating colourful jewellery and home decor under her brand A Fiery Heart.
