Chinese jade statues of the immortal eight

real, high quality jade can be a lot. If you have a reputable local auction house...take it there, but do not let it out of your sight. Also, Skinner, Sotheby's, etc MAY do a pictorial evaluation or refer you to someone. Jade carvings from roadshow... http://www.maineantiquedigest.com/stories/index.html?id=1663 they may have only hit 1/2 their estimates but still...wow. Try visiting local museums with antique jade or even online catalogues...email for help/referrals, like to this one... http://www.asianart.org/jade.htm Just get online & search out collectors. Be careful. Good luck.
