Yes, the top line is in Finnish:
- pieni liekki - suuri vahinko
- small flame - great damage
and the bottom line is in Swedish:
- liten orsak - stor skada
- small cause - big damage

Collecting the world 1840 to date - one stamp at a time! 29 Jan 2018 01:11:16pm | re: Could this be Finland or ?
Yep, Finnish it is... I did a search on Finnish National Library database with the inscription, and it came up with image of this seal (except with copy that appears to be of different print method - so likely there were several printings of this). See https://finna.fi/Record/hkm.HKMS000005:km0043xl
Based on appearance & message of it I'd say it dates to mid 1960/early 70s.
