Great work on the ID.
Bet they didn't get an Inuit to design the label.
Things can get damaged to the point where the best you can say is that someone worked on it. If the thing is a 50,000 year old pebble, that might...
No need to be sorry. I had no delusions when I bought it. I bought it for the label and signature in the hope that the one might help to date...
