Chinese export card case
Posted: Sun Jul 01, 2012 3:45 pm
Hi All - any thoughts appreciated.
A card case measuring 8cm by 4.5cm with detachable lid marked only WH and 90. I am confident the metal is silver and not silver plate. Looking at the forum's Chinese export section I see the same marks only with a third mark with Chinese characters for Wang Hing and Co trading out of Hong Kong late 19th early 20th century. Is this a likely candidate - thanks Frank
The marks are under the base only
