Hello, I don't see much talk
here about faucets in this group
but I'm out of clues hoping someone
will recognize this faucet.

I have what's apparently called a
"wide spread" bathroom faucet that's leaking
around the valve shaft on the hot water side.

I think it was put in when previous owner remodeled
in about 1973. Haven't been able to see a brand name
or any other ID on it.

Question is, can this thing be somehow dis-assembled to
replace seal to stop leaking around the handle? There
is no leak out the spigot. There doesn't appear any
obvious way to disassemble except for screwing valve
portion (right side of photo) off of main body.
Apparently it is
a ceramic disk (but I'm just a guessing amateur.)
Even knowing what brand/kind of faucet would be helpful.

Thanks for any ideas,
