ottoman tugra ( I think !?)

Interesting !

I searched on the site tugra.org ( a good site ) but didn't find anything
similar.

Maybe a fake made in India,
or by someone who makes arabic calligraphy for europeans readers

...

Are these copy frequently made ?...

It isn't especially old or very good work.
So, the tugra was probably intended to increase its value.

Yes !
The only good work is the tugra,
that's why I bought it ( not much thankfully ).
Maybe made later by somebody else.
I'll show it to an auction house next month.
