Title: Strombergshytten bowl.
Post by: keith on August 21, 2018, 01:25:26 PM

Think that's spelled right, 3.5 inches tall 10.5 at its widest and weighing in at 4.5 kg, lots of wear and a few knocks here and there, marked to the base...Strombergshytten and then what I think reads....TB Hb ( might be a 6 ) any information would be welcome, very hard to photograph the marks through the wear  ::) ;D

As far as I am aware it would just be a product code as the name of the designers isn't normally included on a piece.
Gerda and Asta Stromberg designed nearly of the of the pieces for Strombergshattan.

T is the Strömbergshyttan design code for a dish I'm wondering if the B you are seeing is actually a 3 as this does have a lot of shelf wear.
Model T377 was 1962
