Great piece - Oriental Napkin Holder

A great piece for pure visual, sits nice and heavy at 37g for a holder.
Ji Xiang Ru Yi - May your good fortune be according to your wishes.
It’s a great pity they neve added a year context to any of their products - Wang Hing & Co. (circa 1854–1941). This piece based on some research seems to be late 19th to early 20th century, if there are any bodies that have additional information it would be fantastic.
Have a great evening all.

Interesting article, also read their technique on how to get those raised symbols done, crazy to think of the talent without all the modern technology and machinery to assist. Many thanks for the attachments, the disparity on pricing is far and wide but that said, that clean example is really cool.
