Dear Danae,

Thank you for the additional images and your patience. The apprised object is a painted silk room divider with the measurements of 5 x 12 feet. It is a Chinese eight-panel room divider and one side decorated with silk embroidery of various birds, the other side decorated with Chinese calligraphy. It is possibly signed "昭岩" but sadly this artist is not listed in auction record lists or similar databases. This object was made in the second half of the 20th century.
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 300 to 500 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.

With best regards,
Georg
