Hi all!
I have Ethiopian beaker made by famous maker B.Sevadjian in the middle of the 20th century, and I wonder what is written below the lion? Maybe anybody helps me?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ubaranda

I believe it says "Addis Ababa." You can check for yourself by looking at a map of Ethiopia written in Amharic.

Wonderful! You are absolutely right - it's really Addis-Ababa!

Best regards. Alex.
