1920-30s Hong Kong Wai Kee Chinese Export Sterling Silver Trinket/Stud Box 110g
1920-30s Hong Kong Wai Kee Chinese Export Sterling Silver Trinket/Stud Box 110g. This is a lovely piece of Chinese Export silver that we date to around the early art deco era of the 1920s through 1930. It is well marked as sterling silver and “Made in Hong Kong”. It has a makers scripted logo of “Wai Kee” that we can’t trace. It is a small rectangular box designed to hold small precious items such as a lady’s wedding ring set or cufflinks and shirt studs for her husband. It has hand stippled surfaces with its top having a lovely, engraved depiction of a spider chrysanthemum. The interior is lined with soft dark blue material; there is a cut away rectangular void to the underside that shows its lining from below. We have listed other pieces of collectable silver, jewellery and watches this week, please refer to our other listings. It is very good antique condition, no damage or faults to report, some light wear commensurate with age and a warm patina. Please refer to photos as they form part of the condition description. Measures: 7.26 x 5.25 x H2.35cm; 100g overall.
