LONDON — Chiswick Auctions presented 125 lots from a 20-year collection of Chinese export silver on October 9. A notable highlight from the sale was an early Twentieth Century spittoon or cuspidor bowl, marked for Tai Chang Long and retailed by Wang Hing. Made in Canton, circa 1920, the globular bowl had a flared rim, all detailed with flowering plants, insects and peacocks. At 5½ inches high by 7 inches in diameter, the “spitting bowl” was bid past its £1,5/2,500 estimate to achieve £4,284 ($5,601), including the buyer’s premium. Further results from the sale will be in a future issue.
