Framed Flowers - What are They Worth?

Hanging objectsQuestion: Dear Sir, I,d be interested to know the name of this Chinese type of art  . Frames look hardwood and leaves and flowers are opaque and look made from pieces of agate or possibly jade etc but could be plastic although the texture is uneven when held up to the light . The big one (diameter 12 inches) is marked CHINA on the back . I would like to sell these . Kind Regards Andrew

RD Langer Answers; They are very decorative. Without examining I would guess jade, carnelian. They may bring around $200 at auction.RDL
