Mystery Pan Identification

[GregWebber]

I found this unique looking pan at an antiques market in New Brunswick, Canada. After a lye bath, I was able to see a faint makers mark, but it's nothing I've ever seen before, and google image search hasn't yielded any results yet.

- The mark seems to look like S • D
- The No.2 is odd, given the size of the pan being more like a 5-6 from other makers. It is 8" wide at the base. 8.75" wide at the top.
- The pan looks to have had a wooden handle at some point.

If anyone has seen anything like this before, or has any information, that would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

It would appear this is a Swedish pan, manufactured by Skoglund & Olsen AB. It also seems like there may not have been a wooden handle, just a hollow metal one, potentially to slow down the handle getting too hot to touch?

Wow! Well done!

That's definitely a "Skoglund & Olson AB"

Swedish! And according to that website its date is from 1874 - 1970.

Looks pretty old to me. The number 2 looks like it was hand made.
