I now strongly suspect it's a Phoenix from the 50's, the head badge apparently has oriental language of some sort on it.

I was thinking the same and have been wading through a sea of pics to try and match it.
Do I possibly see the "URKO" in the center of the headbadge? as in Durkopp? I know, it doesn't look like any Durkopp I've ever seen, but...
Definitely not, funny I keep seeing it as "UIKO" which also turned up nothing.
