Can anyone put a name to this compote / bowl. In case the picture does not show it, it has three A’s inside of a symbol, under that made in Finland and a “D” under the made in Finland, it also has a “D” stamped in the base before it was glazed. The colors are brown, gray, white, and blue. Thanks for any information anyone can give. I have not been able to find this in any of my books or on eBay.

I believe your mark is Arabia Porcelain, Helsingfors (Helsinki) Finland 1928-1932.

I am Finnish but I am not too familiar with their pottery.

Thanks shaani, I guess I will call it a Finland Compote. I was wondering what the pattern might be called?

It should be listed soon, check over the weekend, I have the same user name on eBay.

Hi Chuck: Perhaps put Arabia of Finland in the title and list it under > Pottery & Glass > Pottery > Scandinavian Art. There are collectors for this type of pottery and since your piece is older than most that are seen on the auctions you should do very well with it. Good luck with it!

If I were betting on it, I'd say if you title it right (be sure to include Arabia Art and..... research to find more key words) you could sell it for a couple hunnerd.

Do some research, and then some more research, and........ some research, then list your findings in the descrip.
