(The video will stay there forever so broken link will not be a problem.) I would love to know what the maker's mark says, if somebody can read it.


Salaams arsendaday ...There is no makers mark in writing . There is no writing.... The floral pattern may be a makers symbol ...but there is no name as such.
....and welcome to the Forum...
