Was wondering if anyone can help to identify this type of table. It belonged to my mother-in-law.

As you can see, it has intricate carving and the top is marble.

Any ideas of the type or where I could go to ask someone?

Thanking you in advance.

I agree with Love, Lu. It most likely is Rosewood and is oriental in style. My MIL has several of these in varying sizes with marble tops. Hers are all rosewood.

It's good to see you Wallis.

Thanks everyone....

I checked and yep - it's Asian/Oriental carved Rosewood. I'll make a note of that.

Rita.... It's good to "see" you also. I remember seeing photos of your MIL's incredible home and furnishings. PRICELESS !!
