Green Glass Gifts for the Home and Garden

Ranked #8,368 in Home & Garden, #102,448 overall

Classic Gift Ideas in Green-Colored Glass

Green glass gift ideas (i.e. glass gifts that are the color green, rather than eco-friendly, although they can be both!) make a wonderful choice for the home or garden.

All colored glass is beautiful - green glass just happens to be my own particular favorite. Although the color means it will never look ordinary in the way that colorless glass may, at the same time green glass is traditional and looks perfectly in place in every room of your home - outdoors too!

You'll also find some sterling silver and green glass jewelry here - too pretty to miss and a very stylish gift to yourself or a female relative.

For indoor and outdoor entertaining

Nachtmann Tumbler in Lime Green

This stunning design from Nachtmann, Germany, is made from weighty lead crystal in an eye-catching dual tone of reseda and lime green. The wide bands turn these handmade glasses into works of art, catching and reflecting the light.

Nachtmann Skin Tumbler/Double Old Fashioned Glass, Reseda/Lime Green

Amazon Price: $77.63 (as of 06/01/2012)Buy Now

Amazon reviewer Kevin Cary commented:
Exceptional, high quality crystal. Very heavy. Gorgeous sparkle--like handmade "art" glass. These have a great feel to them. The blue tint is not overly dark and is consistent throughout the glass. Worth every penny (but you don't want to drop them!). You will drink in high style with these glasses. I own other glasses by this German company and wine goblets. Nachtmann produces some of the very best crystal on the market today.

Green Glass Pitcher

This green glass pitcher is an elegant way to serve drinks - and pretty enough to keep on display the rest of the time! The glass has a green tone that deepens towards its base, and is embedded with bubbles.

Amazon reviewer Jo Ann Ward commented:
I have 6 parakeets in a large coop. They get seed hulls all over the place so I wanted to try these. They really cut down on the mess. I have one for seeds and another for water. It's big enough for them to take a bath.

Hand-Blown Glass Hummingbird Feeder

Amazon reviewer Dale D Miller commented:
I ordered this glass handled magnifying glass as a gift for my wife who collects glass pens of all kinds, magnifying glasses (glass handled), inkwells, etc. This item by far exceeded my expectations. For one thing it's larger than I thought. And the glass handle is just beautiful. Plus the price was very reasonable and delivery was excellent.

    Green glass is beautiful. I used to have an old pitcher and glasses but for some reason it didn't make it when I moved. It's one of those "where did that box go"? Who knows maybe the box didn't even make it. :-)

    Sorry to hear your green glass vanished into a black hole. :( Hope one day you get some more. It really is lovely!
