Flea Market Finds With The Kovels : Episode FMF-107 -- More Projects »

If you enjoy antiques from Asia, then you'll love the 200-year-old bed host Terry Kovel finds at the Renninger's show in Mt. Dora, Fla. It's all handcarved with symbols of family, fertility and good luck. More Chinese antiques up for grabs include an exquisite handcarved scepter, ornate woodcarvings, and a Buddhist monk carved from solid mahogany.

This 18th-century wedding bed is imported from China, and it's priced at $7,000--a good deal considering its age and condition.

The bed's beauty can be contributed to the handcarving on the inside, as well as on the outside.

Wooden architectural pieces like these once adorned Chinese homes and temples. Today the gold-painted ones sell for $1,500 a pair, and the red ones for about $500 a pair.

A solid mahogony, handcarved Buddhist monk dates back to 1920 China. It sells for $700.

This game set from the 1930s is made of ox bone and sells for $175.
