Hi Guys, have two of these little hammered pots. Swedish hallmarks but so much information. Can anyone tell me more from all the marks on the base.

Hi,
The maker (MGAB) is KG MARKSTRÖMS GULDSMEDS AB in Uppsala (town letter U).There was for a short time a company with the same mark in Stockholm, namely MOBERGS GULDSMEDSAKTIEBOLAG 1932-1935, but your date code is B10 for 1976.
