<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 68155, member: 44"]Believe the mark on the right is that of the silversmith Heng Li or Heng Lee. According to the following on the 925-1000 silver forum, Heng Li was in operation fron 1880 to 1920 in Tientsin, China. The message shows 2 marks. The top one may, not sure, be the same as the one on right of this napkin ring. Anyways, the bottom mark appears to be the same as the one on the left of the ring.</p><p><br /></p><p>Scroll down to the 3rd message with the pic of a pitcher:</p><p>"Chinese Export Silver and Far East Infomation"</p><p><a href="http://www.925-1000.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=24259&start=160" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.925-1000.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=24259&start=160" rel="nofollow">http://www.925-1000.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=24259&start=160</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://s1248.photobucket.com/user/spoonseeker/media/spoonseeker002/Heng-Li-2.jpg.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s1248.photobucket.com/user/spoonseeker/media/spoonseeker002/Heng-Li-2.jpg.html" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh494/spoonseeker/spoonseeker002/Heng-Li-2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p>"Heng Li is thought to have been operating in Tientsin during the period 1880-1920.
