Hello, could someone please help me find the designer and, if possible, the name of my very heavy (approx 2 kg) bowl. It is signed Orrefors in cursive script followed by a squiggle which could be an O or D not properly closed at the base, and then 4197 101. Any guidance would be very much appreciated.

A photo is better than a thousand words at times. Several are even better. Provide a general view - as you would see it looking at it on a table. A very clear shot of the signature is highly desirable. A good trick is to take it outside in a clear or a cloudy day so the light is very even and thus there are few reflections if one is careful. Typically also with a flat base you can achieve a better result by using a shallow angle rather than square on to the base. Here is an example where it worked far better for me.
