Salaams sfenoid13 The two cartoche appear to be in Arabic....The top cartouche says Made by....Abdullah(possibly).... but I cant read the bottom one. Persian or Indo Persian? Just a bit of a guess really...

Thank you for your response. I am now positive these are Ottoman/Turkish from 1850s. I showed them to few people. everyone could read the top part but no one is able to read the bottom. Top part says "ameli Abdullah" and th ebottom should start with "sahibi .."
