Thanks for the explanation and pointing out the chop mark! I would say the sugar bowl is definitely Hung Kong.
The teapot is nearly identical, but there are some minor differences on the dragon. I can't believe the teapot is missing the lid!
thx bill

Re: Chinese export silver - Teapot & Sugar Bowl - help with marks
Thank you Trev! Are you basing this just off the "HC" mark. The "C" looked a bit odd to me. Also, why does the teapot vs sugar bowl have different marks? Any idea what the Chinese says?
thank you bill

Chinese export silver - Teapot & Sugar Bowl - help with marks
Hello,
I recently acquired these two pieces. Unfortunately, the teapot is missing the lid and the handle is broken.
Does anyone recognize these marks? I thought the HC (on sugar bowl) could have been Hung Chong, but his work seems to be of higher quality.
I would assume these are late 1800s ...
