What this record means
The record shows that the mark “NOHMEX FINE HANDICRAFT” is dead, having been abandoned on January 23, 2001 because the applicant, Kin Hang Kwong, failed to respond to an office action. The mark was filed on August 30, 1999 under an intent‑to‑use basis and was registered on the Principal Register for class 026, covering artificial flowers and gold‑plated flowers. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, but the closest concern would arise if a new name is used for similar artificial flower products. The prosecution history shows a non‑final action mailed in April 2000 and a final abandonment in January 2001, with no further maintenance events. No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations appears in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, yet the specific goods listed still represent a potential area of concern.
