Acquire this brooch recently, however I couldn't find out much about the mark "CHICHEONG" and what looks to be "AHBOO", any help would be appreciate, thanks.

Hi,

I have Chicheong (Chi Cheng) as an Hong Kong maker, working period 1880 - 1920.

Thanks Trev, can you please tell me where you got the information, I am trying to find out as much as I can.

Hi,

That information came from The Collectors’ Guide to Chinese Export Silver 1785-1940 - Adrien von Ferscht - Third Edition. But I'm afraid there is no further information except mark examples.

Lets hope someone can add some details.

Trev.
