It´s published in an essay about Svenskt Tenn with a 1928 years archive photo from company Svenskt Tenn. A few variants of fishbottles was made in the late 1920´s until a final version was chosed for production. Our is a prototype and probably unique.
After studying Peruvian Chimu era pottery (1150-1460), Estrid Ericson was inspired to design this fish flask in pewter.
