About the Item

Antique, Chinese, hand-pierced, export silver dish with an apron style base of openwork construction. The beautifully executed hand piercing shows sections of bamboo, blossoms and branches and dragons. The 90 mark on the base is a fineness guarantee mark by the merchant confirming that the object is 90% silver. Although retailed by Wang Hing, the Chinese artisan mark is for QIU JI ?? a Canton-based silversmith specializing in high quality reticulated pieces. Wang Hing was the best known and most prolific exporter of silver during the late China Trade period. Towards the end of the 19th century Wang Hing forged connections with Western silver firms and exhibited silver at international exhibitions. The firm later expanded to Shanghai, and opened a flagship store in Hong Kong in 1920.
