Antique Chinese Silver Luen Hing Cocktail Set with Shaker, 6 Shot Glasses and Tray
This beautiful antique 900 silver cocktail set is a fine representation of Chinese export silver circa late 19th century to early 20th century. Made by the noted silversmith Luen Hing. 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.
From the style it looks to be early 20th century, perhaps around the 1910s to 1920s. An elegant piece that would serve equally well paired with contemporary or antique surroundings.
