Title: Can you help please? New member :) ID = FM Ronneby, Sweden
Post by: Aireyfairy1 on August 29, 2011, 04:34:26 PM

I have been reading this message board for some time and have found it very informative.
My main interest is paperweights and I am learning little by little thanks to forums like yours!
I have purchased three paperweights today, two I have been lucky enough to identify as by the
Correia Studion, Santa Monica. I will show these in a new thread, they are so beautiful.
 
Can you help me identify the third paperweight? I  have tried to show the marking underneath as best I
can. The hand etching looks like K Ml  Posseay, Sweden, M489 but I am probably way out - the scratches
underneath don't help!

I have attempted to load pictures but they are too big so I have loaded on Photo bucket, here goes with
links:

Welcome to the Glass Message Board!

It looks like it might say F M Ronneby, Sweden?   :)

Yes, I can see that now, well that gives me a starting point!
Thanks to you both.

It is very nice, huge though, weighs 1.078k or 2lb 6oz in old money.

Hi,

The signature reads FM Ronneby Sweden.

Here are a couple of pictures from my FM/Marcolin collection.

Hi Inca

Thanks for sharing your pics. These paperweights certainly are different!
Not to my taste unfortunately so I am going to sell mine on hopefully to
someone who will appreciate it more :)

Best wishes to all on GMB.
