Literature

Kersti Holmquist, 'Silversmeden Wiwen Nilsson', Kulturen, Lund 1990. The same model is illustrated on p 68, the bowl is sometimes called 'Kungaskålen' (the King's bowl) since a version of this model was in the collections of the Swedish King Gustav VI Adolf.
See p 225, the unusual marks WN 900 is presumed to refer to the close contacts Wiwen had with the USA around 1930.
