It's a concertina, not an accordion. Can't tell you who made it if there is no name plate on it.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concertina
"The German concertinas, developed within Germany itself for its local market and diaspora, tend to be larger than the English or Anglo concertinas. They are generally bisonoric, use a different style of "long plate" reeds, and tend to be square rather than hexagonal.[2] Unlike the English and Anglo, they sometimes have more than one reed per note, creating a vibrato effect."
I added name plate picture
That's not a name plate - only what country manufactured it, not the brand name of the concertina.
This one also has the same GDR plaque, but also has a manufacturer plaque:

Oh ok, then it doesn't have a name plate.
I wonder if its worth anything
Wow I have the exact same concertina and funnily enough I was given it after my grandfather passed away recently. I also want to know more about this little concertina & I'll let u know if I find anything out but I don't think it would have much value in a monetary sense
Well, it is certainly in beautiful condition. Perhaps your aunt can give you more information.
