Swedish? silver ring

Post by ktiggeloven »

Hi everybody,

I have a nice modernist silver ring which I believe is Swedish (but might also be Finnish based on the name). It bears a 830 mark and a fascimile signature which I think reads Uwe Jokainen. I can however find nothing on an Uwe Jokainen, so I wonder if I misread the name. Does this signature ring a bell with anybody?
thanks in advance,

Kasper

Well, that's Owe Johansson's signature mark, aren't there any proper hallmarks (to the right maybe)?

Hi Cheryl,
Thanks for the info. The other two marks are a Dutch import mark and a Dutch retailers/importers mark. As it was probably made specific for export, that is most likely the reason it is only marked with 830 and the fascimile signature (and not the three crowns and date letter), as that is more common on export products. Thanks very much for your help.
Kind regards,

Kasper
