Haggling in the Souks

I want to preface this that my partner and I are having an amazing time in Marrakech! I'm not accustomed to haggling so I'm learning as I go and wanted to see how far above the actual price I might've paid on a few items

5x3 hand painted acrylic on canvas paid 1850 dirham down from 2200 dirham (think I should've tried to go down to 1100 dirham)

Leather sandals paid 900 dirham down from 1250 dirham (pretty sure I well over paid by 400/500 dirham)

Three, 6 inch in diameter, ceramic bowls for 300 dirham down from 400 dirham (maybe should've tried for 210 dirham total?)

Two patterned, (silk?) scarfs for 300 dirham total (no idea on what the price should've / might've been)
