Hi,

Picked this up thinking it was a truly modern piece, maybe Ikea item and was amazed it revealed Kosta Boda number 324.

It has age related wear to the base, but I know so little about the more modern pieces.  Has anyone any info as to the approx age of the item, or the relevance of the numbers please. ( I guess it signifies the range?)

All info and assistance always appreciated, thanks Sharron

me too...!

I don't think 324 conforms with KB production numbering.

Elmwood:
Thanks Martyn,

So are we saying someone has done a bit of scribbling on the base?

You know, When I washed it I was worried about some water that had somehow got into the base of foot.  There is a tiny pinprick of a hole dead centre on the base.

What a fool am I ......

I'd have said M&S early to mid noughties, a vibro pen plus a little creative thinking!  :P
Very noughty indeed!

Martyn K:
Agreed, although the only creative thinking was rearranging the numbers 2, 3, 4....

Sometimes the colour on these is just sprayed on and scratches off if you take a wire scouring pad to it....might be worth a go in this case.!
