Ty Nant • Mineral Water is always in clear bottle, to worship the purity of the fluid. • Ty Nant made the water invisible because the glass itself was a rich cobalt blue • This aroused immense curiosity and a relationship with the bottle started to form for trial and experimentation. • The outside became more important than the inside and the brand became the chosen brand served in fashion stores and salons.
