ID for this bowl please ~ Elvik / Jan Thau (?) Lillehammer
« on: March 14, 2009, 10:54:46 AM »
Hi guys,

Can anyone help me with an ID for this pretty bowl please? It's about 4" (10cm) deep and is signed on the bottom, which has an unfinished pontil mark. The signature looks something like Elvik / Jan Thau and it is also insribed with Lillehammer (or Lillihammer) and 1992. I wondered if it was anything to do with the Winter Olympics, but it's the wrong year!

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, John.
