A Glass Water Bottle Designed for the Table
This Om bottle is best thought of as a glass water carafe or table bottle, not a sports or travel bottle.
Its natural cork stopper is intentionally softer and less tightly sealed than a hermetic cap. That makes it well suited to a dining table, bedside table, kitchen or fridge, where the bottle can remain upright and be handled gently.
If you need a bottle to carry in a bag or transport horizontally, a hermetically sealed design is the better choice.
Natural Cork Stopper – How to Use It Properly
Natural cork is a living, porous material and should be treated differently from plastic or silicone.
For best results, avoid filling the bottle so high that the water sits directly against the underside of the cork for long periods.
Leaving a small air gap beneath the stopper helps keep the cork drier and allows it to function as intended.
The cork should be washed and dried periodically, especially if it has become damp during normal use.
Because cork naturally absorbs moisture and gradually changes with use, it should be treated as a consumable part rather than a permanent component.
Depending on how frequently the bottle is used, stored and washed, the cork may eventually need replacing.
Replacement Om Water Bottle corks are available separately.
Why Corks Need Replacing
Natural cork can darken, soften, mark or become less attractive over time, particularly if it is kept wet.
This is normal ageing of the material rather than necessarily a fault.
To extend its life:
- keep the cork as dry as practical
- avoid overfilling the bottle
- remove and air-dry the cork periodically
- wash gently in warm water
- allow it to dry thoroughly before replacing
- replace it when it becomes worn, degraded or no longer closes comfortably
A replacement cork is preferable to continuing to use a stopper that has deteriorated significantly.
100% Recycled Glass
The bottle is made from 100% recycled glass and is itself recyclable.
This supports the original design intention of encouraging the use of tap water while reducing reliance on disposable plastic bottles.
The glass is stated to contain 0% heavy metals.
Its 1.2L capacity makes it particularly practical for use at the dining table, in the fridge or as part of a daily home water routine.
Om, Seed of Life & Golden Ratio Design
This bottle carries several symbolic elements drawn from sacred geometry and spiritual practice.
The Om symbol is widely associated with sacred sound, consciousness and spiritual unity within Indian traditions.
The Seed of Life is a geometric motif often linked in contemporary sacred-geometry practice with creation, pattern, continuity and interconnectedness.
The bottle is also described by its designers as being informed by Golden Ratio proportions, reflecting a mathematical relationship found in many natural forms and artistic compositions.
These elements give the bottle a deeper symbolic character beyond its practical role as a glass water vessel.
Blue Glass & Symbolic Water Practice
Blue glass has long been used decoratively and symbolically for water storage.
Within the philosophy behind this bottle, blue glass is associated with solarisation and intentional water practice.
These ideas belong to spiritual and symbolic traditions rather than established changes to the physical or medical properties of drinking water.
The colour itself also gives the bottle a distinctive appearance on a table or within a calm kitchen or wellbeing space.
Gratitude as Part of the Design
Gratitude is one of the central themes of the Om Water design.
For some people, the bottle becomes a small reminder to slow down and bring awareness to an everyday act such as drinking water.
That can be as simple as filling the bottle, placing it on the table and taking a moment to appreciate the water before drinking.
The value of that ritual is personal and reflective rather than scientific.
Easy Fridge & Table Use
The bottle's diameter and balance are designed to make it easy to handle despite its 1.2L capacity.
Its broad neck helps with filling, while the upright format works well on dining tables and inside many fridges.
Because the closure is natural cork rather than a fully sealed travel lid, the bottle should remain upright during use and storage.
Care & Maintenance
Wash the glass bottle gently by hand with warm water.
Avoid putting the bottle or natural cork stopper in a dishwasher unless the manufacturer specifically states otherwise.
A suitable bottle brush can help clean the inside thoroughly.
Wash the cork separately in warm water, then allow it to dry fully before replacing it.
Do not leave water standing against the cork for long periods.
If the cork becomes persistently damp, stained, softened or worn, replace it with a new stopper.
Quick FAQs
Is this bottle suitable for carrying in a bag?
No. This 1.2L model is designed primarily as a table and fridge bottle rather than a sealed travel bottle.
Is the stopper watertight?
The natural cork is a soft closure rather than a hermetic seal. The bottle should therefore remain upright.
Should I fill the bottle right up to the cork?
No. Leave a small air gap so the cork does not sit continuously in water.
Does the cork need cleaning?
Yes. Wash it periodically in warm water and allow it to dry thoroughly before replacing it.
Will the cork last forever?
No. Natural cork gradually changes with moisture and use, so it should be treated as a replaceable consumable part.
Can I buy a replacement cork?
Yes. A replacement Om Water Bottle cork is available separately.
Is the bottle made from recycled glass?
Yes. It is made from 100% recycled glass and is recyclable.
What is the capacity?
The bottle holds approximately 1.2L / 1200ml.
What do the Om and Seed of Life symbols mean?
They are spiritual and sacred-geometry symbols associated respectively with sacred sound, unity, creation and interconnectedness.
Does the bottle change the physical properties of water?
Claims around vibration, solarisation or energetic changes belong to the maker's spiritual design philosophy and are not established scientific effects.
NB
As this product uses natural cork, the stopper may gradually change in colour, texture and fit through normal contact with moisture and regular use. Corks should be washed and dried periodically and replaced when worn.
Keep the bottle upright and avoid filling it so high that the cork remains sitting in water.
