Title: Afors cut dish with code 1951
Post by: Paul S. on September 16, 2014, 04:38:19 PM

Hoping someone can assist please with decyphering this Swedish manufacturer's codes  -  fairly sure it says Afors 1951 - always possible that it simply indicates the year.

Small shallow cut dish about 6.25" (160 mm) wide, and the cutting remains very sharp - so presumably no acid polishing.
Very white and bright glass which catches the light well, and very minimal damage/wear.

thanks for looking. :)

many thanks for looking Mikkel  -  it's the four figures that come after the word Afors about which I'm unsure............  it looks to me like the No. 1951  -  do you think that indicates the year, or might it be a factory code? :)
