Hello I have just rediscovered this vintage bowl, it was made by someone is well known, I can’t recall the name anymore as not seen this in years, not sure if these have gone up in the 8 years since I put this in a box. But this might be sought after.
Made by Royal Copenhagen and the designer is Nils Thorsson.
