Dear Lynne,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the apprisal.

The presented object appears to be a painting made in oil or acrylic paint on canvas with the measurements of 27 x 23 inches with the frame. The painting depicts a portrait of a beautiful woman with a lilac skirt and has the title "Adornment". This painting was made and signed by the artist LU Jai (1954). The Chinese born artist LU Jai (1954) depicts mainly portraits of women combined with esoterical and mythological iconography.
Works by this artist were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 700 to 1.500 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.

With kind regards,
Georg
