Asian silver salt shaker need help to id maker

Postby niceguy1 » Mon Jul 14, 2014 7:05 am

Hello all

I have this antique Asian silver salt shaker decorated with a fiery dragon.

The marks are poorly struck &/or rubbed but perhaps David or one of the other knowledgeable people can still make something out.

THANK YOU

It could be Guang Ji, Hong Kong [1890-1920]

Not totally sure as mark is badly struck
