Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I was feeling a little "lonely".

To be honest I didn't have a plan yet for the spot for the painting
(not informed enough yet). I just saw it, thought it could be lucky but was concerned about the black ribbon on the iching coin(didn't know if was significant for death or misfortune etc). I went to the store and they coudn't give me any info so I emailed the company that made it and they couldn't help me either. I met a wonderful man at the trade show on Sunday. He looked at the photo I took of it (with permission from the store) and told me it was a bottle from the time of confucius. The artists signature was on the painting in Chinese Characters but he couldn't see the packet tied with the iching coin due to the light relection in the photo. He asked me to email the link (http://www.imagekind.com/ShowArtworkMuseum.aspx?imid=ISI_K35002) to him and he will try to look at it and let me know when he gets back to his home in BC. Thanks.
