Silver Teaspoons - Chinese Maker?

Post by dbowles »

Hi,
I'm trying to find out some more information on a set of teaspoons I have. Could anyone help me identify these marks please?
Thanks,
Dave.

Hello there,

There's a mark of 廣記 (Mandarin: Guang Ji / Cantonese: Kwong Kee), Hong Kong circa 1890-1920
and a partial artisan mark next to it.

The pierced characters on the finials are 如意 (ruyi) in seal script, which roughly means 'as desired'.

Hope that helps,
Connor
