    I acquired a Chinese art collection from my father Inlaw that recently past away and this was one of his favorite pieces from the collection. All I know about this is it is a wood carved statue, overall size is 10" wide x 24" tall x 8.6" depth painted dark brown. I believe it to be very old, hand carved and worth some money. I do not know what kind of wood it is or anything at all more than I just stated above but could really use any information anyone might be able to give to me on this piece. I am new to this but looking to become educated as much as possible as it seems very interesting to me.

      The figure might be Guan Gong aka Guan Yu. Beautifully carved.

      Thank you for the very helpful information. Now I know what I need to educate myself on in order to get this appraised along with many other pieces I may need some input on as well. Thank you.
