Anyone know Chinese silk scroll paintings?
 
A friend bought this from an elderly Chinese woman's garage sale years ago. Trying to figure out if it has any value.

I have an original Japanese Block art piece from the early 1800's I purchased it in Tokyo and it was EXPENSIVE....don't know anything about Chinese silk.....are you sure it is Chinese?

If only that was all on the back pocket of a pair of jeans! You could retire!

It's all speculation until Tabs weighs in.

If those were hand made woks, they'd be worth $450!!!!

It's very well done, but probably not worth a whole lot unless the artist is someone of note. Mrs. Lee's grandmother was a Long March veteran and painted several similar paintings for us, which we hang in our house. I doubt they're worth anything, but I look at them every day and think of the time I spent hanging with her in her special nursing home for the party elite. That woman had been there, done that and that's what those paintings mean to me.

Rick - can she translate the name? I see artists listed on eBay, but with English/phonetic pronunciations.

It not a Dragon so I don't know?

I M Chait auctioneer in LA would be the guy to call, he deals in Chinese & Japanese stuff. ...310 285 0182

Lots of times I may not know but I can steer you in a direction.

She's asleep now, but I'll try to have her look at it before she goes to work. Otherwise later tonight.
