Additional Information : The Bimini Werkstatte was founded by architects Josef and Artur Berger together with the better known Fritz Lampl. With war looming Lampl relocated to England in 1938 and became known as Orplid glass. They seem to have specialised in making rather decorative glass buttons.

this is some of the lightest glass we have encountered. They are remarkably delicate but the thickened rims have prevented any damage thus far.
