    So i found this at a Goodwill store. It is obviously wood and hand carved. It is very detailed if you look at the pictures you can see it's down to the dot. Even the trees have been carved behind to make holes for a realistic 3D look. It appears to be of Indian origin.

    I am wondering what anyways knows about this and if it has any value. Any time frame it might have been made in. I saw no markings and it appears to be a wall hanger but it's pretty big for a wood piece about
    12" x 18".

    Thank you

      Balinese would be my guess.

      They represent Rama & Sita or the Ramayana.

      Sometimes Rama & Shinta. It's a fairy tale!
