Subject:Chinese Marks on Silver Hexagonal Pot Komodo Dragon
Posted By: Richard Wed, Nov 30, 2022 IP: 2a00:23c4:ce21:8801:
I have a miniature hexagonal pot which has Komodo dragon handles around it. There is a two character mark and perhaps another one which is rubbed / worn away. I believe this is Chinese silver but wanted to check if anyone can help me read these marks.

The three character marking reads,
余茂興　-　Yu Mao Xing (Yu Maoxing) - Probably the name of maker.

With fregards,
I.Nagy

Thank you for your response. I can trace a silver maker with a similar name - Tu Mao Xing so as the mark is rubbed could this be TU rather than YU?
