      Hi Rex,

      The contact information is on Wayne Hilt’s pewter website.
      I am sure he would be happy to help you. An image of the spoon & markings would be helpful.

    I own a Kut Hing Swatow Pewter with 2 chinese symbols one on each side of the word “Pewter”all printed on the bottom in the topside there is what seems to be 3 sets of what lookks to be flowers very straight lined except the little branches which are pointed .
    across the top is 3 1/2″ across,which starts with a 1/16th in. lip,it then bows out a bit and is 3/4 in. deep, then has a what looks to be a cup holder were the flowers are it is 2” in. across.followed by a less than 1/16th in. dip to keep the saucer from sliding around. I cant figure out how to post a picture of it on here or I would it looks to be 18th-19th century old. I hope I can find out what it really is and a picture of it on the net with a value with it.any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks for all ur help in advance
