similarly some of the names of seven sleepers:
Yemliha, Meksalina, Mislina, Mernuş, Debernuş
but the rest are missing.

I am not very sure about the makers name, and I could not the second inscription.

Many thanks for the translations Zifir!

I think I pretty much covered all of the inscriptions but I will check and upload anything missing.

Just trying my hand at etching using 1:3 ferric chloride:water solution. I shouldn't have any problem with the silver inlay should I?
