I wondered that too.  ;)

- or, on another pic, wondered if the last word might be Lynn, as in King's Lynn?

Chris, have you tried rubbing a little talcum powder over the mark, then removing the excess with a gentle sweep of your thumb?

That might help bring the engraving out over (under?) the wear.

I've just looked through the Wedgwood book, and get the impression that their cullet shaped pieces were a lot neater than this, so possibly not from K.L.

I thought that the last part of the squiggle might have included an  L  -  does anyone know how Tyra Lundgren signed her pieces -  she was at Reijmyre near that time, and did do fish, albeit much earlier in her career.          I'm probably wrong, just a ramble.  :)

I too think Reijmyre looks good.  The date is fairly early and they did lovely animals.

I agree, it also makes more sense.
If you use it, someone designed it.

You are reading Reijmyre, another glass works near Norrköping, Sweden. As a school child  I visited these glass works with my class. We watched how glass was blown and shaped, very interesting. A very old but quite small glass works, producing very fine glass. All I have from there is a small figurine with two owls, "lovebird" style, a gift from my children. They had no idea that their mom had actually visited the place where it was made!
