The Laurvig and dotted L marking

This is one of the markings of Laurvig Glassværk, in Larvik, Norway. Besides Moss Glasværk there were two other important glass factorys in Norway around 1900: The Bergen Glasværk and Laurvig Glasværk.

The competition was tough. In 1913 the Moss Glassverk and Laurvig Glasværk is making a cooperative agreement, and late the same year Bergen Glasværk is joining them. In the 1920's there are great problems with the supply of coal and other materials, and the production is often stopped. In 1926 the Laurvig Glasværk is shut down.
