Hi,

I try to find who design this plate. Clearly stamp with Finnish mark in 1963. What does stamp on the right means ? "All" ???

Many thanks for your help.

Hello, on Scandinavian pieces, mostly from the 1960ies onwards, one can often find the designer's monogram, too. As the maker's mark is the first one on the left, I believe this (I rather read this as "A H ") is a designer's monogram. Might be Airi Hänninen, who worked as a designer for Turku companies in the 1960ies. Best wishes, Bahner

Ok thank you for details. I agree with you letter could be "AH".
Is it made of silver or sliver plated? Where can i find any information about this wife ?

Thanks

Finland Marks These are marks used for silver, not silverplate.

If you read Finnish you may find some info on him in these returns.

The maker is Kultateollisuus Ky of Turku, I've just added their mark and a number of other Finnish makers' marks to the Finland page
