Page 511 - Chinese SIlver By Adrien Von Ferscht

At roughly the same period Lock
Hing was operating, the Canton
silversmith Kam Lung was creating
what appear to be almost identical
standing cups to the one illustrated
above - or at least the characteristics
of the workmanship and style are
indistinguishable. The Contemporary
Kam Lung standing cup and
detailing, including a dragon’s head
executed by what looks like the
same hand as the previously
illustrated “LOCK” cup.

Left: An image of another receipt from Lock Hing
showing that it had a separate store for Japanese
Wares. A close inspection of the premises [see
following image] shows that Lock Hing was spread
across a 3 unit store - one must have been
dedicated specifically to Chinese Wares and
another to Japanese Wares.
