About the Item
Antique 19th Century pair of Chinese export solid silver goblets, impressive and exceptionally fine quality, applied with prunus flowers and exotic birds perching on branches, standing on domed foot and realistically modelled tree shaped stems. Hallmarked Chinese Export Silver, Canton, possibly year around 1880, Maker's mark CS for Cumshing.
Among the silversmiths working in Canton, Cumshing seems to be the longest working one.
Specialised in flatware and tableware for the Western market, Cumshing used pseudo-hallmarks to mark his pieces. The earliest production was characterised by neoclassical motifs in the Georgian style, totally similar to contemporary pieces made in Europe but much heavier.
Cumshing pieces show a very high quality and faultless craftsmanship that according to Crosby Forbes ‘stands without peer among early Export silversmiths’ (Henry A. Crosby Forbes, Chinese Export Silver: 1785 to 1885, Museum of the US China Trade 1975, p. 74). Nowadays his artworks are part of the collections of international museums such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Yale University Art Galleries and the Detroit Institute of Arts.
