Bristol blue

Sun through blue glass, Chartres Cathedral? No, but as lovely in its small way. It glows blue and reflects on the wall, distorted and paler. Its design is balanced and soothing. An Aegean blue, the one they use on doors, but from Bristol, where they still make glass by hand which shows in the reflection.
