It's Swedish I tell you that.

My mother happens to have worked for Kosta Boda so I'll ask her she is very knowledgeable on glass like that. :wink:

"vimmers by kyrka"

Try Vimmerby Kyrka; it's the motive, the church of Vimmerby. :thumbsup:

My mother has not yet had a look on it, I will tell her to do so when she's back home. (She needed her hair fixed.. You know women?

)

I will let you know what she thinks when she has had a look on it.

If it is Kosta Boda she'll likely know it. :thumbsup:
