FAQs

Chinese export silver refers to silverware manufactured in China from the late eighteenth century through the mid-twentieth century primarily for Western export markets. Craftsmen combined traditional Chinese iconography, such as dragons and bamboo, with Western vessel forms and silver purity standards.

These items were predominantly crafted from high-purity silver, often hand-hammered, chased, and repousse worked to create raised designs. Intricate openwork or reticulation was achieved through precision hand-piercing techniques using fine saws and files.

Authentic pieces often bear artisan marks or workshop character stamps alongside maker marks in Latin script, representing retail silversmiths operating in Shanghai, Canton, or Hong Kong. Examination of hand-chased details and heavy gauge silver construction also helps confirm authenticity.

Small decorative silver dishes function well as catch-all trays for desk accessories, jewellery, or keys on an entryway console table. Their detailed metallic texture provides visual contrast when placed atop polished dark wood surfaces or stacked art books.

Dust regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners that strip natural patination. Use a specialised non-abrasive silver cream sparingly, taking care not to build up residue inside deeply chased or pierced recesses.
