Hi - This is my first post here. I read about this place on the GMB and if here is as good as there then I'm in heaven!!! - I have been looking for a good Pottery & ceramics forum for a long, long time.
I have a number of interesting but unidentified items I have collected over the years, So where to start?...........How about here:

STENT?J
DANMARK

Thanks Tigerchips - I have tried a number of permutations on this name but found nothing too.

Aine might be able to help, I'll ask her. :)

Hi there, I dug around a bit and will get in touch later with the local history archives on the island of Fynen, where Ravnild Keramik was situated. It seems to have been operational from 1940 to 1960 but hopefully I'll get back with more precise info.
Cheers for now!
-
Brilliant! Thanks Aine, look forward to seeing what you find. :kissy:
-
I've called them and the gentleman will look up the archives today, I'm to call him back tomorrow.
:)
-
Wow!- Thanks for your help, it's much appreciated.

Hi Crispin, and Welcome to the Board. :cheerleader: :cheerleader: :cheerleader: This is where some of us GMB people roam around too....lol....as we collect everything
Very nice bowl there and a40ty knows her stuff. We look forward to seeing your pottery posts, or anything old in the other section too.
...And again Welcome :kissy: :kissy:

Hi Rose, you make me blush :blush: I'm just the detective.. :comp:
Crispin, the gentlman in the archive had found out quite a bit about the place and the people but he's in the middle of setting up an exhibition and his notes have disappeared somewhere in the confusion. He'll be finished with the setting up by tomorrow and I've arranged to ring him next week.
In the meantime,
Could you please send me the photos you have already posted plus one of the inside of the bowl/dish?
The gentleman would also like to know the dimensions of it. He thinks they may have some of the company's products in a box in the attic, and he says it might help to compare "yours" with "theirs".
He's such a very nice helpful person, he made my day :)
You can pm me with your email address and I'll send you mine that way.
look forward to hearing from you!

a40ty - Again, thank you! I will send you a pm now.

Wonderful a40ty and a Great Detective!! :clap2: :clap2: Keep us posted..

Jeg er ved at bygge en hjemmeside om Ravnild Keramik - Ravnild Stent?j. Samle alle indformationer, billeder, fort?llinger m.m. Sp?rgsm?let om " Danish Bowl", p? Ringe Lokalhistorisk Arkiv, satte mere igang. Jeg har arbejdet p? Ravnild, og har selv lokal interesse i historien. Siden er endnu ikke f?rdig.
