Kosta Boda, Glass manufacturing museum in Lessebo Municipality, Sweden.

The Kosta Glasbruk facility spans multiple buildings where skilled artisans create glass objects using traditional furnaces and specialized tools.

Founded in 1742 by Anders Koskull and Georg Staël von Holstein, the glassworks initially produced window glass, chandeliers, and drinking vessels.

The factory represents Swedish glass craftsmanship through collaborations between master glassblowers and designers who create contemporary art pieces.

Visitors can observe glass production processes through guided tours, participate in glass blowing sessions, or purchase items at the factory shop.

The facility manufactures the Eurovision Song Contest trophy and the Women's World Championship International Handball Federation award since 2008.
