[01-0846] Here is a trio of Chinese forks of unknown metal, period, and maker. As shown, they have a pierced, floral and foliate pattern. They are marked "ZEEWO" next to a character. They were included with a box lot of flatware I purchased. Any ideas?

"Zee Wo" appears on a wide range of Chinese silverware dating from the late 1800's until about 1920's. References:
