I know this stuff has been on before, but can't make out the mark.

Looks familiar. I think it’s Southern European. Looks like a pomegranate

Yes it does.

Scrawly script, but now I've found the right way up, it reads

Hand made

I was guessing mediterranean. It doesnt say Portugal though,
could be a Greek name? I need to study it for another hour!

I would be inclined to think Cyprus, but may be wrong.

It may end in "OS"

This is driving me nuts. The script is very messy. could be:

kalcynlho_
halcynthos

something like that.

Saw another piece of this stuff on the boot the other day.
A charger marked with just that unreadable name, and "Greece".

Ha, Lindy was right! Saw another piece in a charity today with a clearer mark,
though initially I read LAKYNTHOS, an image search soon turned it up.
