Just home from visiting cousins in Sweden, where the favorable exchange rate encouraged me to bring back a silver souvenir: a sauceboat. The nice young man in the antique shop told me it was designed in the 1920s-30s and made in the mid-20th c (hallmarks confirm a date of 1952), by "one of the three top silver manufacturers in Gothenburg." Does anyone know more about the manufacturer, GEBOS? Or have thoughts about what the engraved "SIG: GB" (? maybe GD?) might mean?

That's really nice! Is it handmade? It looks hammered. IP: Logged |

Thanks, asheland. Yes, handmade. It's not my usual style, but I thought it was very handsome and well made. IP: Logged |
