[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 13157743, member: 2844"]Looks 20th century to me. The decoration on the front is attractive, the brown spot is a pity. The mark is off-centre and sloppy. I agree it is handwritten, but not in the antique way, where part of a line is thicker and has a more saturated colour because that is where the calligrapher rested his brush a split-second longer and pushed it down to end the line (usually at the end).[/QUOTE]
