KWAN HING [aka KUN XING; KUN HSING; K.H.]
            31 Wellington Street, Hong Kong
            circa 1880-1935
























































            Kwan Hing was both a retail and manufacturing silversmith operating in Hong Kong, however it is a silversmith
            which is difficult to attribute a definitive style to, particularly for items made for the Kwan Hing shop ; Kwan Hing
            also manufactured for other retail silversmiths such as Luen Hing.
                                                             Equally, Kwan Hing is one of the Chinese silversmiths
                                                             who  used  a  confusing  array  of  different  formats  of
                                                             silver mark.














                                                             The  illustrated  mark  [above]  includes  a  central  mark
                                                             that  clearly  states  “Kwan  Hing”;  the  mark  [above
                                                             bottom row right] has a similar mark.
