Zee Sung, Silversmiths of Shanghai

Some Shanghai silversmiths i’ve noted before include Wang Hing, Wo Shing, Hung Chong, Luen Wo, and Zeewo, Tuck Chang. Add to this list Zee Sung, yet another Shanghai based silversmith. There were many silversmiths operating in the first few decades of the twentieth century targeting mostly the tourist and Shanghailander trade. Many were originally Canton (Guangzhou) based tradesmen but moved north to Shanghai withb the growth of the fpriegn population and development of the city as a major stopping off point for ocean liners.
