Dear China Doll,
Thank you for the flattering address.
Here is the reading.
普渡衆生　-　Pudu zhongsheng - Redeem for all sentient beings (Universal salvation)
保佑平安　-　Baoyou ping'an - Blessing and protection, safe and sound

With regards,
I.Nagy

From what I can see, the writing is acid carved, not with the usual tools.

I forgot to mention that acid carving was common about 50 years ago.
