ELECTRO-PLATING AND KEPAIR WORKSHOPS :
OBSERVATION POINT, WANCHAI.
The Electro-Plating Works laid down some years ago have proved a distinct success, both in the high quality of work or peditiously turned out and also la the fact that our clients are saved considerable delay and HEAVY EXPENSE in sending home tarnished metal ware for replating.
This VARIABLE AND DAMP CLIMATE will cauze both silver and cleatro-plated metal to tarnish, therefore why allow such oyesores, when it is possible to make equal to now et small cost.
The Workshp Plant has recently been considerably enlarged with additional facilities for BRONZING, ANTIQUE COPPER, OXYDIZED SILVER and other fancy finisḥics.
SHIPS FITTINGS.
+
It is bardly necessary to dilate on the great convenience to shipping firms, in the knowledge that Saloon, Cabin or Dook Fittings, dinner services, etc., can be made equal to new in the shortest time at reasonable cost.
HOUSE AND SHOP FITTINGS.
Dinner Service, Ornaments, Shop Raila and Fittings, etc., all need attention-in the course of time, and the benefits of local remedy again appeal strongly.
