Greetings.
Concerning this company.
Silver ring,circa 1940s. The silver marks appear as:
830s,in square - Lo.in square - Nr.373,in square..

I've seen several of the rings. Recently I've inspected one with the Lo NOT in square. Everything else the same, quality also etc..

*Is this cause for alarm? Anyone familiar with these markings/company? ..Thanks ,G.

Scandinavian silver jewelry isn't really a target for reproductions/forgeries (yet), except for those ubiquitous cast knock-offs of Georg Jensen jewelry. And more obscure makers like the one you mention would definitely not be likely to be faked. So I'm sure the ring you are looking at is a legitimate vintage Scandinavian piece.

I'll try and get the photos of the makers marks on both the known original and the suspected reproduction.. thanks.,G.
