Description

I was hoping for help in finding more about these pieces.

Are they from China or Japan? What era or approximate year are they from? What features help to distinguish origin and age?

Also, I can't find any markings but fear opening the frames. Are these pieces usually signed in the front or back? Would opening be advisable?

Lastly, I certainly don't expect a precise appraisal, but would anyone know their approximate value? Their sizes range from 60-80cm x 50-70cm.

Thank you incredibly!

The embroidery patterns here look very similar to mine, posted as "asian embroidery on silk" on page one. 

I think I am also quite in the dark as far as any information about them, other than I believe they are Chinese. Apparently such detailed embroidery is quite prevalent throughout Chinese history; I did some fascinating esearch on the styles of embroidery throughout all of the dynasties to try and at least determine which era it came from, but I didn't have much luck in narrowing it down. Maybe you will have better luck!
