Chinese export silver

Post by brydekirk »

Hi, I have a chrysanthemum bowl measuring 8cm high & 15cm in diameter weighing 277g as shown in the photos attached. I believe that this was purchased in Hong Kong in the 1920's and I would be grateful for any information about it.

Thanks,
Ian

Hi Ian,

Welcome to the Forum.

That appears to be the work and mark of Cum Wo, who was working at Queen's Road, Hong Kong from c.1860 to c.1920.
