The fiery story behind the name.
Salamander Design takes its name from the Salamander Street area of Leith, Scotland.
This street was once home to the fiery & toxic Leith Glassworks.
It operated during the 17th &18th century and in its hay day was producing over 1 million bottles per week.
The street takes its name from the Fire Salamander (which folklore says can survive the flames of fire) as this was said to be the only creature that could survive in such hot conditions.
The fire proof amphibian represents rebirth, resilience, adaptability, protection and the ability to survive harsh conditions.
Salamanders are also related to healing and transformation, as they can regenerate limbs and organs with no scarring.
