Does anyone know the furniture maker who used this logo?

After looking online, I've seen someone else indicate that it's a Swedish brand, but I don't know if that's true.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's located on the underside of a teak mid-century roll-top desk

As discussed previously.

Unfortunately not all of the images, in that post, have  migrated across to the updated /new Forum.

The number 528 possibly applies to the member of that furniture association: AB Broderna Gustafssons.

Image below for the maker's label from  a roll top bureau, I found online, which also had the same paper label as yours.

Picked this one up yesterday at  l'Armée du Salut.  I'd seen a number of these over the years but didn't know much about them.  Naturally, the best info I found online was here on the forum, thanks to lexi, leif, spanky, et al.  

I tried to find more info on the oft-cited designer, Egon Ostergaard, but had no luck.  There is a gentleman with this name who heads up the Danish Ornithological Association.  Maybe he does furniture design work on the side? 

I tried to find some history on Bröderna Gustafssons möbelfabrik and this was all I found so far, from a Swedish furniture museum website:

"The brothers Gustafsson started their furniture factory in Hultarp in 1936. A few years later Helge Carmström became an employee of the company. In 1946 he took over the entire movement together with Karl Andersson from Fröseke. The latter, however, only stayed one period in the company. After the acquisition, however, the company name was maintained and the business was still run in Hultarp. But in 1951 Carmström bought the factory building that had been erected by Bröderna Franzén and where the business was maintained until the company was closed down in 1971. See also Premo Furniture ."

Tag underneath.  Also has the "Made in Sweden" rubber ink stamp.
