RARE Antique Chinese Kut Hing Swatow 3-Piece Pewter Cocktail Shaker, Early C20th
Posted by admin On March 10, 2025
Antique Chinese Kut Hing Swatow 3 Piece Pewter Cocktail Shaker – Early C20th. This is a rare pewter Cocktail Shaker made by the Kut Hing Pewter works of Swatow (now Shantou) in Guangdong. The Kut Hing company was arguably the most prominent Swatow pewterware maker of the late 19th/early 20th century. It is engraved with a beautiful stylised dragon and stamped with the Kut Hing Marks on the base and in the lid. This has been in my family for many years but unfortunately I don’t know anything else about its history. I do know that there are very few of these on the market. I would guess that this dates from the early C20th, and internet research seems to bear this out. The shaker measures approximately 22.5 cm (just under 9 inches) to the top of the lid, and the maximum diameter is approximately 30 cm (11.5 inches approx). Condition: Good for age, with a nice patina. There are a few scratches and dings, and some minor oxidation marks, all of which which I have tried to show in the photographs. I have not polished it or attempted any restoration as I feel that, if needed, it should be done by an expert. Thank you for looking. Please check out my other vintage and antique items for sale.
Rare ALUMINIUM antique CANDLESTICK large MERMAID Historism figure 19th century
Posted by admin On March 10, 2025
Welcome to my offer. Early ALUMINIUM made in Germany. I offer you here a rarity obiect from the period of early industrialization of the German Gründerzeit (Historism). The candlestick is depicted in the form of a winged mermaid and was made of the metal aluminum cast. The candlestick is then finished with a lacquered patina, typical of the gloomy ambience of historicism, following the taste of the time. The candlestick is in good used condition, with clear traces of use in the patina (scratches), see photos. The unique item is not marked. A truly museum piece of contemporary history. A beautiful collector’s timedocument for your Collection. At the World Exhibition in Paris in 1867, the first time products of new metal aluminum were shown, and received with great interest by the public, but the products at that time were still much more expensive than Gold, because for the process of production still a very high technical and energetic process had to be operated. Since the process of industrial production at the beginning of the 20th century became much cheaper, the prices then also lowered to the present day, so that today one does not pay much attention to the metal in everyday life, because we encounter it in everyday life constantly. Please have a look at my photographs as well as at my other articles that offered. 18.7″ x 6.89″. Inch or 47,5 x 17,5cm. 5.12 x 5.12 inch or.
