GlitterLab, a third-generation family workshop in Poland, handcrafts unique luxury Christmas baubles for clients including Swarovski and Harrods, blending tradition and innovation.
- In Czestochowa, GlitterLab handcrafts bespoke Christmas baubles and decorative ornaments, operating a modest workshop for more than 80 years since World War II.

- The company's products aim to evoke nostalgia and joyful memories, as Barbara Mostowska hopes customers display baubles year-round while GlitterLab workers adapt designs for the U.S. market.
