From the Wikipedia article
Bath Aqua Glass is an independent artisan glassmaking company based in Bath, Somerset. Established in 1996, the company is renowned for its production of "Aqua" glass—a signature blue-green tint inspired by Roman glass discovered in the city's thermal springs. In November 2025, after more than 20 years as a landmark of the Walcot Street "Artisan Quarter," the company consolidated its operations at its established studio in Kingsdown.
