[QUOTE="FlyingButtonRanch, post: 56494, member: 582"]*head slap* :shame: Sorry! Missed reading that the "K" and "i" was a missing link. Maybe it was that 2nd glass of wine. LOL Well, it's a lovely piece! Is there a secondary factory stamp anywhere on the underside/inside handle or inside the foot rim? The K or "i" could just be an I.D. of one of the several factories in other countries, or other companies they acquired like Albert Kohler. Records are sketchy for those companies. Also K could maybe be a repair stamp mark for work done by Kohler later? There is a WMF copper piece on Trocadero in copper that had a K under the plain diamond and Ostrich version of the company mark, but it wasn't in a square punch. Nothing was mentioned about what the "K" signified. There is a closeup of the stamp. [URL]http://www.trocadero.com/stores/Hacienda/items/824008/item824008.html[/URL] Oh, and good morning!
