Re: Vintage mandolin
Your photos are way too small. Post larger ones showing the signature.
A wild guess would be a French mandolin-banjo.

Unfortunately it was found on an online classified add. I will get in touch with the seller

Re: Vintage mandolin
I like Jim G's guess -- French or Italian. Slotted, tapered headstock with a scroll...
Here's a Ritelli mandolin banjo on an auctioneer's site that looks a bit similar. Supposedly made in Mirecourt, France. Here's another Ritelli that shows a burned-in signature; anything like yours?
