AMBERLEY VILLAGE - Thousands of dollars' worth of property, much of it antique Chinese and Japanese pieces, was taken during a home burglary this month in the 2300 block of Section Road.

The theft appears to be the work of amateurs because more valuable items were left behind, police said. Amberley Village Police Detective Jeff Norton said evidence indicates a lower-level rear door at the house was forced open between Nov. 2 and 6.

Police are not identifying the homeowner.

Among the items taken are:

• A white stone Chinese Yuan period carving of a seated Kuan Yin, valued at $1,200.

• A gilt over solid metal figure of Quan Yin, valued at $1,200.

• A Colonial five-drawer jewelry chest circa 1600, value undetermined.

• A 6-inch tall Hellenistic bottle with a 3-inch circumference base dating to about 100 B.C., valued at $250.

• Two Japanese incense burners together valued at about $600.

• Two Japanese wood carvings, together valued at $1,125.

Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Norton at 531-2040.
