Bath Aqua Glass Brings a Handcrafted Sparkle to Bath This Christmas

Bath Aqua Glass will once again shine as part of the Bath at Christmas campaign, bringing colour, creativity and warmth to the festive season.

For more than three decades, Bath Aqua Glass has been a proud part of the city’s creative heart, handcrafting beautiful glass art in its Walcot Street studio. The company has faced many challenges over the years, including the impact of COVID-19, the energy crisis and competition from mass-produced imports. Yet through these changing times, Bath Aqua Glass remains dedicated to preserving the ancient art of glassblowing and supporting local craftsmanship.

This year, the studio’s glassblowers have created a Limited Edition Dated Bauble that captures the spirit of Christmas in Bath. The 2025 design is now available to pre-order, with every bauble individually hand-blown and finished with care to make each piece unique. This year’s edition will only be made until 30 December, marking a definitive close to its run and ensuring its status as a collectible keepsake.

Visitors can also take part in the “Blow Your Own Bauble” experience at the Bath Christmas Market, where guests are guided by the Bath Aqua Glass team to shape and blow their own piece of glass art to take home.

The Walcot Street shop will showcase the full Christmas collection alongside live glassblowing demonstrations, festive displays and the popular #TagYourTree competition. Customers are invited to share photos of their trees decorated with Bath Aqua Glass baubles for the chance to win a limited-edition prize.

Despite the changing face of the high street, Bath Aqua Glass continues to thrive. This enduring success is a testament to the skill, passion and perseverance of its team. Each hand-blown creation reflects not only the beauty of glass, but the enduring spirit of a local business that has stood the test of time.
