Sorry to confirm: recent Chinese manufacture. The markings make no sense: it's just like one of us would want to imitate Chinese hieroglyphs using random squiggles, magazine ads and titles of Bruce Lee's movies.

Thanks (I think!) for the advice, guys. Naturally very disappointed to find that it is a copy, but at least it looks good and will impress visitors.
