Thanks Detlef,
Despite my early suspitions, I was still hoping it would turn out to be original, because the style of decoration looked distinctly European. But I can see the clear resemblance to your second puuko and I am convined you are right.
When I looked I could not find any Greek of Ottoman scabbard that were anything like this one and then I knew it was a mistake. Lucky for me, not an expensive one.
By the way, European motiefs do not necessarily mean anything because they affected many Middle Eastern and Eastern makers, like in this little Ottoman hammam bowl I bought recently..
