Thouma Jambiya for Comment

[TVV]

I have wanted to acquire a thouma jambiya ever since I read Stephen Gracie's book. This one is probably not too old based on the dress at least. Since the discussion almost always seems to revolve around what kind of material the hilt is made from, I am attaching a picture of the end grain. Whatever it is, it is very translucent.

The thouma itself appears made of low grade silver. There is a mark on the back - owner's name? If anyone can decipher it, I would appreciate it.

Thank you,
Teodor
