Title: Aubergine vase, label illegible, German or Scandinavian? ID = WMF
Post by: michajoli on January 19, 2017, 03:42:18 PM

Hi guys!

I have searched in the web for hours but could not ID it by myself, so i need your help please!
Vase is 29cm high and i think it is either of German or Scandinavian origin. Any help appreciated :-)

Regards
Micha

Hi, it might be much more helpful if you could post a very clear picture close up of the label :)

Someone might be able to work something out from it.

 A bigger picture of the label would be nice, please. It is far too small for my old eyes.  :P

Hi guys!

Thank you for this idea! I normally do so but i think i forgot to do so here.

I have a bigger pic of the label here, one pic without having "photoshopped" it and the other with having done so. I think i can recognize ...HA...

Micha

Could the top word be 'BOHEMIA' I wonder?

I don't know but i don't believe so. I still think it's from Germany or Scandinavia. But who knows, i can be wrong ...

great and thank you for coming back to the thread with the id.
Obviously the label is a different shape to yours so
perhaps your label is a distributor label then.  I thought there might be an H in the top line word?
