This is not my ud, but I am hoping somebody can help me translate the label.
Tarafindan something. I think tarafindan means something like "for" or "on behalf of". Don't know. The next word I can't make out at all.
Thanks.

Jonathan,
It looks like "tarafimdan imali", which means "built by me" or "my own production." The indication is that the oud was personally made by Ohanyan
rather than by someone working under him.

That's great. Thanks a lot!
