Unknown Mark on silver box from Sudan 1936 for ID

[Atlantia]

Hi All,

Here's a heavy silver box with islamic script that shows it was made in Omdurman (The Sudan) in 1936.
There is a tiny stamp on the catch and I have no idea about it.
If anyone has any idea's I'd appreciate it.

Thanks
Gene

Anyone have any thoughts?

Come on peeps. Somebody must have some experience of Sudanese silverwork?

Hi Gene,




As, to my knowledge, there has never been a system of hallmarking in the Sudan, I can only guess the mark can be one of only two things, it's either a maker's mark, or possibly the import mark of another country.

Hi Trev,

Thanks for the help. I guess it might remain unidentified in that case.
