Dutch term or phrase: klavertje
I think it might be Dutch. It is the label from an antique coffee grinder I recently purchased. The rest of the label says: "marque et modele deposes". Please translate as well.

English translation:Clover leaf
Explanation:
Klavertje is indeed Dutch and it means a small clover leaf.
The other phrase is French, meaning that the make and model are protected by copyright.
