We're excited to introduce to you the newest piece in our sustainable homewares collection - these elegant and stylish copper coasters. Each one is handcrafted, made-to-order and has been crafted with 100% recycled materials. This is sustainability and ethicality at its most beautiful...
The inspiration behind our decorative coasters...
A cup of tea or coffee is a morning ritual for most people and we wanted to create a stylish and luxurious coaster that brings a little sparkle to your morning. We also wanted to make waking up and starting your day a little more enjoyable by creating a beautiful, handcrafted item that you’ll love using! These sparkling, shining copper coasters will be the difference between a good cup of tea and an excellent one!
Our decorative coasters - The story behind the art...
Following on from the concept of our sustainable and ethical copper homewares collection, each one of our copper pieces are created with the quote “waste not, want not” in mind. We found that while handcrafting our larger copper items such as the plates, bowls and baskets we were accumulating many strands of wire that were a little too short to use for our other creations.
Because of this, we gathered them up and rather than tossing them away, we carefully joined each piece together so that they can be utilised for our copper coasters and jewellery bowls. This ensures that once again, the copper is saved from a journey to landfill and is instead supporting a circular and sustainable economy. It's these little details that ensures we're making a positive impact at every step.

Wondering how our decorative coasters are created?
Due to the fact that our copper coasters are made from 100% recycled copper wire, each strand needs to be stripped and untwisted before it can be transformed into a new creation. We set aside the smaller pieces of wire which are left over from our plates and bowls and then use them to weave into our sparkling copper coasters. Unlike our larger pieces which take an excess of 12 hours to create, these petite items take around an hour from start to finish. With the coaster almost complete, we then use our custom weave to ensure that the design is durable and that all the strands of wire are held firmly in place.
Carbon neutral shipping & packaging - From Sophia. to you...
Once the Sophia. workshop has received you order, we’ll get to work crafting your coaster coasters using the method above. Upon completion, we then carefully package them together into a box made from 100% recycled cardboard and also use newspaper to protect each piece from being damaged during shipping. While newspaper might not look as fancy as coloured tissue paper, glitter or confetti, it does ensure that each order is having the least amount of impact on the planet as possible. Also, once again we are utilising a material for an additional time before it ends up in landfill or a recycling centre.

I actually pre-ordered a set of these coasters when Sophia. first announced them because I didn’t want to risk the chance of missing out. I’m glad I did too because they’ve definitely become popular! |

About the Collection - Decorative Coasters
Our specialty is handcrafted homewares with a sustainable twist and our copper homewares collection aligns perfectly with our mission to reduce waste and provide beautiful products.
Each copper bowl and plate has been created with 100% recycled copper wire and it takes up to 30 hours for one piece to be completed. It's a long process from the stripping of the wire, the untwisting, the re-twisting and then the weaving into the beautiful finished product but we believe that quality homewares come from hard work, attention to detail and quality control.
