Hello Jose,

Quote:
I agree with Kai on it being Sulu (and that it needs to be etched and cleaned ).

However I think it is a little earlier, say the early 1800s.
I have to admit that my mid-late 19th c. timeframe may be a bit too cautious. However, when looking at the scrollwork I just don't see the quality I'd expect from early 19th c. pieces. While there may have been "village quality" examples in all periods, the combination of above-average pamor with sub-par scrollwork just doesn't parse with me though.

Regards,
Kai
