Made in Sweden
« on: January 22, 2012, 07:49:45 PM »
Picture showing four items with Made in Sweden labels - these are simple paper labels - a similair picture can be seen in Leslie Pina Fire and Sea pp245 (this label is same as on my green finger vase (in photo)

There are a fair few such labels - the red type is on blue Elme vase and taller red vase, the oval black type on Alsterfors far right

Can we find out more aboout attribution through these labels?

Anyone with similar please post - especially if they know maker

Thanks Adam

Hi Wayne

Your blue Elme dimpled vase label is same as on my Elme

Good to see two other labels re Elme

I think my red vase may be Elme

Your Alsterfors label is different yet its same model

Thanks Adam

Your red vase is Elme too, (flat form?):
