New Members Just Checking Posted October 24, 2012 at 05:17 PM New Members Report Posted October 24, 2012 at 05:17 PM I recently acquired a silver vase which I believe was made in Shanghai by Luen Wo during the last quarter of the 19th century to early 20th century. on the right side of the LW hallmark it has this hallmark which might be the name of the silversmith who actually made this item or possibly the year it was made in. I would really appreciate any help I could get in translating what this hallmark says Thanks a Bunch! Quote
