<p>[QUOTE=&quot;norantyki, post: 7948380, member: 118879&quot;]Hi all!</p><p><br /></p><p>Not a coin, but I know there are people here proficient in Arabic. I picked up this lidded brass pot inlaid with copper and silver. Its a pleasing example of Damascene or &#039;Cairo&#039; ware, and from the construction and craftsmanship, I think its from the first half of the 20th century. If anyone wishes to correct me on the above, please do so, as this is not my field of expertise - I just thought it was a nice thing, and the price was right.</p><p><br /></p><p>If someone could translate the Arabic, that would be hugely appreciated. Also, if not made apparent by the content of the text, could someone offer a potential point of origin for this piece?</p><p><br /></p><p>Many thanks in advance![ATTACH=full]1376753[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1376754[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1376755[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1376756[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1376757[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
