    Does anyone know anything about this bowl? It was my great grandmothers who died in the 1950's. The only marking I can find on it appears to be from the Kalk company in Germany (two crossed arrows) but I cannot find any similar bowls from the Kalk company on the internet. It's all fine china. So anyone have any ideas?

    Hola, and welcome! I've never seen anything like it, but there are lots of ceramics brainiacs here who'll be taking a look!

    I think that's an Arnart mark , and that bowl looks 60s/70s to me .

    Thanks Johnny. I've wondered about Arnart vs Kalk, but both of them, I think, put numbers below the arrows and I can only find references to where they made figurines and china. Did Arnart make bowls like this?

    And I agree it looks pretty retro like the 60's but my mother assures me this was my great grandmothers bowl who died in 1956. I read that Arnart started production in 1953, so theoretically she could of bought it near the end of her life (she died in her 50's) and it could be Arnart, but it's a small window.
