This is he very first jug I ever got. At first thought it was one of Kaj Francks's Kartio jugs, but the size and shape didn't fit completely. Years later I found out who designed it when I saw asimmilar one for sale on ebay (in red... lovely! andwith 6 matching glasses... a dream piece!) and it was holding the original Lindshammar sticker with the ameof the designer on it. God bless this kind of stickers. Why didn't they become mandatory in glass production?
There's a lot of designs that resemble KF's KARTIO... so far I've got this one and Breit's from 1957, but there are more of them around.
