The name of the firm relates to the town of Krosno, in southeastern Poland, where the glassworks and manufacturing facilities are currently situated.[5][6] Each individual piece is handmade by expert glassblowers, artists and now higher technology.[7] The modern and futuristic design of the glassware manufactured by Krosno is based on the concept of minimalism.[6][3]

The company was acquired by Coast2Coast Capital in 2016 for 121 million Polish złoty.[8]
