Can anyone tell me what this is called - Chinese or Asian Art Related
 
Hi,

I recently acquired a variety of artwork via a small inheritance and I'm wondering if anyone knows what these items are called. They are not really my taste and so I am selling a few things on eBay and I'd like to get the descriptions right before I list them.

Item #1
Traditional Chinese Decorations. It's about 5' long and hangs on a wall. I'm certain I've seen these in Chinese restaurants. Not really art but more like a Chinese Decoration.

Item #2
This looks like a very old (possibly ancient) antique. It's like a scroll, it's made of silk and is about 7' tall. It has old bells on the bottom and I don't know if this is Chinese, or Moracan, or whatever. Anyway, I'd like to have a reasonable description and name before I sell it. The photo is bad and I need to retake after I can find a wall big enough to hang this on.

Lastly, if anyone is interested, I have lots of artwork listed on eBay now. A combination of Chinese, Japanese, African, and Mexican Folk Art. I still have more stuff to list but it is taking a lot of time to get everything photographed and described.

Thanks! I looked it up and that's exactly what it is. I was hoping to know what it's called before i list it on eBay.
