Hello -

I am just embarking on collecting oriental art. I have a couple of pieces that I have purchased from a colleauge and I would like a bit of expert advice.

These two items are a husband and wife. They come with a certificate of antiquity from a dealer in Japan.

Can someone help with an actual value on these and also where I would find the most information online for this type of antique?

These have been re-hung as they were originally smuggled out of China.

Thanks,

Michael
