Environmental responsibility has moved from the periphery to the mainstream, which means that there's an increasing array of green products that look great, work wonderfully, and are good for the planet.

The vivid colors come from the bottles themselves and a sandblast process is used to create patterns such as fish and vines on glasses and goblets. In recognition of Earth Day, in April the company will donate 10% of the proceeds from its Evergreen Collection to the Nature Conservancy. Prices start at $37.50 for a set of four tumblers. www.greenglass.com Cisco Brothers Gone are the days when environmentally friendly couches, chairs, and pillows only come in oatmeal color and look like burlap.
