Antique Asian Painting on Silk Water Boat Scene with Calligraphy

Antique painting on silk that I want to say is Japanese but really cannot say for sure. I was told it was .. but then I was told it was Chinese. In any event it is beautiful water boat scene with calligraphy . The sides are folded over on a heavy paper and on the sides and there is more markings which probably is a poem. It is 15" x 10.25" . The condition is good but there is a smudge just on the right side just left of the tree. And another smudge below the boatman. it is wrinkled a little but it is in need of framing and that would take care of that. Then the piece has been cut on the left side and folded over. It is hand painted.

Thank you for shopping in my store on GoAntiques.com.  I am delighted you found interest in my items.   When you check off an item to buy it is assumed that you are making a commitment to pay for it.  If you change your mind on your purchase please notify me right away. 

 When you purchase an item from my store there is a chance that some of the older inventory has not yet been set up to auto-calculate the shipping.  Please remain patient.  A notification alerts me that there is a pending sale that needs shipping added.  As soon as the notification arrives I immediately calculate the lowest possible shipping for you based on the zip code, the dimensions and the weight of the item to be shipped.    Some of the older inventory could have outdated shipping information and may need updating.    Please send me an email for updated shipping information and to avoid surprises

     Foreign sales the shipping is never auto-calculated.  Again, as soon as the notification arrives I get busy to find you the best shipping options for your location. 

The dimensions and weight posted below are the approximate size of the packaging to calculate the shipping.   Please refer to the description for the actual size of the item.  The shipping quoted includes the handling, insurance and delivery confirmation.  To give you an idea on shipping of a particular item please refer to the size and weight.   I ship from Seattle, Zip Code 98103.      Most items will be sent USPS Priority Mail despite the website's auto calculation for FED EX Ground.  (Currently that is the only auto calculator offered via GoAntiques at this time)

 I try to give you the lowest shipping as possible but still make sure the item is secure.  It is all about size, weight and distance.  Fragile items need to be packed in a box with a lot of padding.   The box needs to be much larger than the item being shipped.   The cardboard box with the packaging material add to the weight and dimensions. 

Large items like furniture need to be picked up in person.  Or your own arrangements can be made to have a shipping company pick up the items.    That is only after your payment has been made or cleared.    In rare circumstances I can deliver within the greater Seattle –Tacoma area for a modest fee.  

Thank you.
