Please can you help identified the time period and origin.

Hi,
Chinese origin, an opium bed and 4 windows covering.
They don't look very old. Mid 20th century I guess.
Cheers

Hi, Thierry:
I just happened to see your post. I had looked at the first two pieces in person and appraised them. The first one is made of various of wood and was stained to look darker. They appeared to be modern to me. The second one is quiet heavy, and the style of carving reminded me of Canton export carving, which was popular in the late 19th-20th century. Besides, the bed had patina of being used, so I dated it as late 19th to early 20th century. let me know if you have questions. I haven't seen the third piece in person, so I won't comment on that. However, it looks quiet nice from the picture, at least in term of decorative value.

These pictures seem to be probably of mid 20th century. Anyways, nice pictures.
