Page 443 - Chinese SIlver By Adrien Von Ferscht
P. 443
A superb and quite unusual turn of the 1§9th century cutlery set carrying the Lee
Yee Hing mark.
It is extremely rare to find Chinese Export Silver cutlery in this style - a rather
romantic fusion of Chinese and European. The handles have tree shrews [sonshu]
worked into a melange of foliage and neo-classical motifs in a heavy repoussé
work.
Both the blades and handles are in silver, making these extremely high quality
flatware.
