Hi Albert,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
A vintage Southeast Asian polychrome decorated and part-lacquer carved wood door
Probably early 20th Century
Centering a large dragon on a red ground, amid stylized clouds
64 inches high, 35.25 inches wide
CONDITION: polychrome/lacquer decoration is bright suggesting this was not used outside and/or is not very old, which is a little at odds with the weathering of the back.
PROVENANCE: acquired from a Halifax, Nova Scotia estate of Asian art collectors.
$800-1,200*
*represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary.
