Help with oriental hallmarks please...

Postby LCWH » Tue Feb 21, 2017 10:19 am

I have been trying to find out what these marks mean in the lid of this pot that I bought recently. Does anyone have any idea?

Many thanks

吉興 JiXing ( = YenJiXing 顏吉興, maker, based in 汕頭 Swatow/Shantou )

點銅 DianTong ( Although "Tong" alone means "copper", this term actually means "pewter"; some items made by JixXing are marked also in English so it's clear)
