I had to look it up on a seriously confusing swiss site, but the mark "FAM" seems to be for Malmstedt Folke, located at the address of 261 61 Landskrona, from 1914 through 1970.

Here's a screen shot so you can see.

And the LINK, if it works?

Who knew that a random foreign language credit from High School would ever pay off?! HA!

Way to go! It's a pretty thing!

Picked a gooder last night! .830 silver Swedish vase. 20oz, 10" tall, almost spotless.

Maker: FAM -- Anyone have a book or two they would be willing to crack? Can't find on internet.
City: Landskrona

So back to "FAM"...
