Bib & Sola - ʻA stylish way of drinking, an elegant way of givingʼ

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) November 21, 2011 -- November 2011 - Bib & Sola is the creative vision of contemporary lifestyle designer Kira Heuer, who has drawn on her International background in Art, Fashion and Media industries combined with her passion for sustainable living have seamlessly synthesized to produce an exquisite collection of Murano glass carafe and glass sets – bringing to life a new concept of drinking. Founded in 2011, the name Bib & Sola derives from Latin meaning ʻdrinkʼ and ʻcomfortʼ and represents all that is valuable, remarkable and bespoke.

Inspired by the effortless composure of women water bearers throughout the world, the collection is at once striking and evocative. Additionally, a percentage of all proceeds from each sale going directly to The One Foundationʼs development of pump water systems in rural Malawi, Africa. With the pumps revolutionizing the lives of children and families, each sale of a Bib & Sola piece makes a tangible difference. Made with the intention of searching for a reusable alternative to excessively wasteful plastic water bottles, the carafes are the start of a journey to empower those who live without basic access to water.
Available in eight colors, the carafes can be purchased in both intimate sets (consisting of one carafe, and one glass) and social sets (consisting of one carafe, and six glasses). Each set is hand-blown in Venice by local artisans using natural colour pigments, creating a unique touch to each piece.
