Could this be from Middle East?
Could this be from Middle East?
Hello !
I have found an unusual spoon with a couple of hallmarks that I have not been able to identify; one of them looks like an Arabic character, but I am not sure...Can somebody tell me more about the origin and, possibly how old it could be?
Thank you !
Andrea
P.S. I have followed the instructions to load the images in the post, but the preview does not show the image at all. That is why I have placed the link only...Sorry!

Try https://postimages.org (choose 'Share', then copy the 'Hotlink for forums' code) it's much simpler.

Hi,

Pay attention to the mark on top rotated in my image, another mark should be Tughra,but it`s not clearly seen in your spoon.

Written on it in Arabic is a word that means true, perhaps this word was a propaganda symbol used by the factory to distinguish its manufactures
