How much weight can a drywall anchor support?

Question:I am trying to hang a piece of woodwork on the wall, it will have four screws or bolts to hold it in place.

Answers:
Depends on the type of anchor you buy. Since you will be using 4 of them, you can use smaller ones. They make the small plastic anchors that are not much bigger than the screw/bolt and now they make one that looks like huge screw itself and installs with a phillips screwdriver.

Weigh the piece and go to the home improvement store. All the packages of anchors are labeled for the weight they will support.
