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.
