Waclaw Glowacki was one of the most prominent Krakow goldsmiths of the 2nd half of the 19th century. He also ran a store where he sold his own products and those of other manufacturers, including Christofel. It is likely that the above sugar bowl did not come out of his workshop, as evidenced by the unidentified goldsmith's monogram - JK .
