Taken for 'The Sunday Challenge': "un-noticed detail"

Never noticed these characters on these manhole covers before, wonder what they are/mean?

Not sure what the covers cover either, there's a lot of them down this street, maybe one per pair of houses.

I did wonder, but it would have to be very stylised, and I can't see a match for some of the characters . . .

Update, I've now seen quite a lot more of this style of covers around, and the appear to have the name of the company the uses the manholes where these symbols are and if you look at the main image a name has been removed in the bottom left and top right. So I guess this is likely to be a company name in Arabic.

the covers are often small works of art!
