    Hi,
    This is another Svea No 5 from my shelves. I acquired it about two years ago in a good shape. PC203905.JPG
    As you can see, provided with original trivet

    All stamps are clearly visible:

    Pump knob was originally made of bakelite

    Filler cap with central vent screw:

    Trivet was cracked in one place:

    I was not determined for welding due to very faint visibility of it and no meaning for functionality.
    One can suppose that the stove was produced mid 50s - early 60s.
    Works perfectly:

    Thanks for watching.
    Take care

    Another interesting example of a plated Svea with Bakelite pump knob, 'Best stove in the world' slogan, starburst logo, but 'later' feel to it. A similar example is here, and further discussion also linked to in that post but for completeness linked here.

    If the cast iron pan ring on @Stanisław Grajewski's example is orginal to the stove, that might be a clue to age...
