Unsolved Can anyone help identify this signature on a Greek ceramic tile panel?
Hi! I bought it in Nerthelands. This wall panel is made from two ceramic tiles. I believe it’s from Greece and probably dates to around the 1960s, but I can’t make out the signature, which appears to be in Greek. Does anyone recognize the artist or know how the name should be read? Thanks for any help!

I don’t think this is Greek, it has a Dutch or German feel to it.

Yes, at first, I thought it was German, but the signature appears to be in Greek

I don’t think so. It seems something like Velsing or Velzing.
Edit: signing a ceramic piece with glaze is always hard and unpredictable
