My wife is on a mission to id, does anyone know who might have made this? Only mark is Made in Denmark, no other marks or info? The Made in Denmark is a circular impressed mark on the bottom of pot...

Thanks.....

Very similar to this Michael Lax Copco, but I can't find your same piece.

tchp, thanks it does look very similar. I was wondering if Copco made pieces where they did not stamp Copco, or Michael Lax on some of their products?

Copco
Many Michael Lax for Copco pieces are unlabeled, usually when the bottom of the pot is enameled. Your pot though isn't one I've seen before--I'm doubtful it's Copco, since when they are labeled, it usually "Copco Michael Lax Designs Denmark", and not just "Made in Denmark." The lid though strongly resembles Lax's pots -- could this piece be a marriage?

Although a marriage is possible, the lid and pot are an exact match fit wise(no mismatch), and although it's not a great picture the color match is exact and the interior use is consistent with each other with pot and lid. They really appear to be made together, however since I cannot find another picture of this style you may be right...The made in denmark is stamped into the metal like the older copco michael lax pieces....
Thanks for the reply very much appreciated....

I recently got a cast iron pot like the one cali4sun posted at top, which has only a "Made in Denmark" mark on the bottom, and is not marked as Copco or Michael Lax.
It is the orange pot, whereas the yellow one is by Copco. The lids are identical, and interchangeable. The manufacturing details look the same, even though the orange pot has some different design features than one typically sees on Copco pieces. I would find it very hard to believe that they were not made by the same manufacturer, and I am sure Cali4sun's pot and lid are not a marriage.

random info..
I burned the bottom of a kobenstyle pan recently and could not get it clean. Since I figured it was ruined I had nothing to lose in trying to clean it with extreme mesures. I set it on the stove top with about a half cup of bleach and two cups water. I brought it to a boil and it ate all the grime off!
