Additional Information : This design is invariably associated with Tamara Alladin. This is undoubtedly made by Riihimaki. however. although many similar designs are attributed to Aladin we cannot find any primary source to confirm this. This is undoubtedly Riihimaki

Riihimaki was a victim of the 1970s oil crisis and soaring energy costs. We are very sorry hear of the demise of Glashyttan Ahus and other studios who have not made it through “lockdown”.
