thankyou scandinavian_pieces for the love :)
goodday vetraio50:) and thankyou for the love :)
Love the plaited handle.
I have a jug by the same firm.
It too has a nice covered handle.
I think the designer of your piece is Nils Nisbel and comes from a range called "jet 60" - these days it reminds people of the Jetsons.
I think the name GABIS is a stainless steel range made for the Guldsmeds AB (aktiebolaget or company). The original company goes back to 1867. Gense is perhaps a more familiar name of their production; the original Gense firm was taken over by GAB in 1964.
Found this cool site on Sweden too!
