I did research on eBay and the internet and I only came up with new reproduction furniture that sells for hundreds and thousands of dollars. I did find very old antique carved furniture; I couldn't find anything of vintage Original Hand carved like what I have and of this quality. During my research of these items I found that many of the pieces were shipped from Hong Kong and that my pieces where shipped from Taipei, Republic of China per a business card that came with the furniture. (See Photo) When talking to people they stated that that the furniture was made for export, most were brought home by tourists or service men stationed in south East Asia. That it was hand carved and made in china and exported to the US.

Can you tell me anything about my item as I don't have any idea what it is or the value.

We got this painting from my husbands co-worker, who's around 60 years old.  He got it when he emptied his moms house, it comes probably from his grandparents or greatgrandparents.

It 's the Holy Trinity Church in Stratford upon Avon.  It's oilpainting or on board or on canvas glued on board, not sure about it.  It's a hard material, dishshaped mold, maybe papier mache or plaster.  Diameter of the painting is 13,50".  The frame looks very old.  On the back under the ripped paper is a tag 'patented August 31 1880' On the paper is 'Stratford on Avon painted by Galley or Salley S Wall or Well.  I couldn't find anything concerning this name on internet.  I don't see any signature on the painting itself.
