This beautiful antique 900 silver box is a fine representation of Chinese export silver circa late 19th century to early 20th century. Made by the noted silversmith Luen Hing and makers’ marks for 德記. Luen Hing was an important retail silversmith circa 1880-1920, selling luxury goods, particularly silver, which were hotly desired by middle and upper class members of Chinese society.
A gorgeous image in chased silver, this dragon is depicted lying on top the box with its head curled back onto itself. In side profile this particularly stands out due to the 3 dimensional effect of the dragon. Beautifully wrought with its curled claws and bristling mane rendered in fine detail. At a substantial weight of 439 grams at 900 silver purity, this is a statement piece to house your treasures in. Monogrammed EJA 1915 as presented.
Price marked at $3000 AUD.
Excellent antique condition
Measurements: 20.4cm width by 8cm deep, 4 cm height.
