Middle Eastern piece with hallmarks?????

Post by mankajun »

Hello all,
I recently acquired this piece from my mother. She doesn't remember where she got this and I've had no luck finding anything out about it or the hallmarks. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

This doesn't seem to be middle eastern. From the stamps, I would guess more European.

Regards,
Hada

Thank you for the info. I was thinking it might also be colonial Indian. I will try to get it moved.
