jkautz55 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 I'm trying to figure out who's Tughra this is on a Silver Ewer that was awarded to an Ottoman Bureaucrat. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkautz55 Posted October 19, 2012 Author Share Posted October 19, 2012 I should mention that I thought this was from Abdulhamid II, however I found a list of inventory from the original owner that listed its production date as 1860, which would make it Abdulmecid.

avsaribar Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Hello , Yes , it is Sultan 2nd Abdulhamid Tughra . The small one is sah ( Silver Purity stamp ) and the zig zag mark , we call as ceshni , they take the silver dust sample from there .

demir Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Hi, Here is a website where you can find all toughras and information about them. http://www.tugra.org/en/index.asp They may not resemble the toughras on the silverware but at least give an idea.

avsaribar Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Just for an information ; The style of the Toughras on the Ottoman silverware and the official / classic style of Toughras of the Sultans are far away different ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
