Can someone please read this label on some glass, I believe it's German?

It’s a Pitcher and Glasses with a Pewter decoration. I can’t make out what it says. Can anyone help please?

Hi, it is in Greek but it doesn’t really make much sense the way it is worded but would basically express that the display is decoratively wrapped (perhaps the pewter) because in [URL removed]

  • Upper row it shows in [URL removed] “Διακοσμητική Ναυπλίου” that is Nafplion (the town) Decorative Manoliou or Manoliu"
  • The second row [URL removed] “χειροποίητον” that means " Unchangeable Handmade"..

Brief additional reference about the [URL removed] Nafplio (or Nafplion) is a small town in Peloponnese (Greece). Many times it is also referenced as Nauplio, Nauplia or Nafplia.

Good luck, Monty!

I can’t make out the letters to put them into a translator. Can you make out the letters? If so let us know what they are.

[URL removed] After a second look and going to Wikipedia, they look like the cyrillic alphabet, it’s more like that than German.
