What does this inscription on the Infinity Gauntlet mean?
I was recently re-watching Avengers: Infinity War and I noticed that when Spider-Man, Ironman, Dr. Strange and the GoTG try to pull the gauntlet off of Thanos' hand, there is some sort of inscription on the gauntlet.
Below is a photo of it (pardon me if the image isn't very clear):

The "writing" appears to be a simple repeating pattern. As you can see from the images below (showing the film prop used in Infinity War), the pattern on the side is a repetition of the pattern on the top and other side of the gauntlet.

and this image which shows your screenshot more clearly.

I had to triple check to fully recognise that it's indeed that pattern on the blurry picture.

@Valorum thanks for pointing it out. It did seem like some elvish engraving in the beginning though 🙄 I always thought that since the Dwarves made it, they put some sort of signature/inscription just like they did on Mjolnir
