Bimini glass was created in Vienna in 1923 by Fritz Lampl, with designs by Lampl and his brother-in-law Joseph Berger. The company produced decorative, lightweight glass with vibrant swirling colors and nature-inspired motifs, but was forced to close in 1937 due to Nazi persecution against its Jewish founders. Lampl, his wife Hilde, and other family members fled to London, where they re-established their work under the name Orplid glass, though their London workshop was eventually destroyed by a bomb
