This is the only thing I can find that resembles a maker/artist signature.

Oh. It says, “Made in China”. Who knew?
benreich
Yeah, that’s haunted
doingallthethings
I have one of these tables. My grandparents brought it back from China I think
MadamYouAreLurking
My parents have this in black. Bought it in the 80's in China Town, SF. Was around $350 back then

Damnnnnnn that's gorgeous

That's really cool, how haunted is your house now?
cp199129
No falling objects or strange noises but the security cameras have been acting fishy...
Dirtsailor2010
LooksLike something my grandmother got in Bali
justanotherdude6710
Imagine how much opium that table has had on it.
cp199129
I’m pretty bummed that your comment doesn’t have more likes. Haha

I need to start going to garage sales.

Not bad for 3.50

My parents have one just like it. In 80’s having some Asian accent pieces was In. Asian furniture store wants $3k. Parents paid $300.
Innoculo
It’s actually a really cool piece to be honest and I enjoy looking at it. Some are better quality than others.
DaveElfstaine
That means courage. I got it as a tattoo in 1994.
motoalchemist
we need to talk, that is the exact set my dad had in our house in the 70s, reqally, i grew up with that table
ImTalkingAboutDrainage
Mah jong table.
JediWizard
My mom used to have this EXACT table but it was black and painted with gold accents while the relief under the glass was super colorful
cp199129
Woah that sounds pretty cool!
EdH83
How much!
TupacAintDead
Nice score
cp199129
Thanks!

Now find out when Antique Roadshow will be in your area
cp199129
Thought of that but I had faith in my fellow redditors to help since I’m too impatient to wait. Haha
GusTarball
Don't bother. Mediocre carving. Cheap varnish. Poor wood joinery.

Well that's a meme
TheRichestOne
Sneaky way to get that in … deserves a down post for that.
NeverMetAGoodMod
Doesn't look like a garage to me.
DicksTakeDickpicsWithSelfieSticks
I agree. It looks more like a table with matching stools.
735824
It's not, it's a sail for a garage!
cp199129
I didn’t take the picture at the garage sale.
Aramrice
My grandmother has literally the exact same one! She's had it since I was a kid! (I'm 26) I've never seen another one before!
cp199129
Cool! 26 here too, friend.
dave030580
My wife and I found a triple chest set with the same type of art engravings. Does it smell Smokey? If so, it should be made out of Camphor.
cp199129
I haven’t noticed a scent like that within general distance from it but I’ll take a closer sniff tomorrow. Haha
buzzl1ght
You wouldn't happen to have brought his in NSW Australia would you?
cp199129
Nope. Oklahoma
buzzl1ght
My friend, 96, had one of those almost identical, her husband brought in Singapore approx 1950 ish. It was stolen a few years back.
buzzl1ght
It was valued massively over what you got it for.

nolookie
No joke my grandma has that EXACT same piece
ChrisXApplesauce
So did my aunt!
iamtheyummypie
My land lord has one, too!

Mine too. Completely serious.
choochoochooo
Mine too!
fetetert
Me too. I still remember sitting around it with my cousins eating in the living room.
Cooljay12
Mine too- or at least she did
zenairas
Mine too (in Portugal).
WallyWorldtoo
My Mom had one too. Nice replica. Bought in the 70's 400.00 comes to mind.
cp199129
I tried looking it up and found ones very similar but had little things different here and there. Like on the edge the people on the edge
WallyWorldtoo
The people along the edge, is a story about an old couple. Could be BS my Mom made up stories
digme
Damn.. A lot of people have this. Maybe it's from Pier 1.
exarkun00720
Your grandma HAD that exact same piece, now she has 3.50.
pompa
My Italian grandparents have it too. In the UK here
toach

MarshanMarvin
Me too!
MarshanMarvin
Bought it brand new while in Hong Kong in the late 70’s and shipped back over to the UK.
bigfloppydonkydong
My Korean neighbor has the exact same one
JellybeanYKWIM
I have a similar chest that I got when I lived in South Korea. The carvings tell a Korean fairytale.
catnapperlu
How much did she pay?
jim71989
Most likely 3.50
FitzTheBastard
Dammit Jim! We need an answer, not an old meme!
DarnYouToHeck
You can't post this without some initial research and the price you paid, c'mon this is antique/ interesting object blue balls
technologyexpert
It's some 70's era cheapo pop furniture. It's not worth anything.
mikokpl
Father in law has the exact table
TheRealAethrys
Chinese, one of only a handful of pieces which survived the Ming dynasty purge of all non-vase crafts.
hwbobb55
You can tell by the made in Taiwan on the bottom
cp199129
I wouldn’t have posted this if I’d been successful in finding any info. I’m not trolling either. Got better things to do.
Peperoniplayboy
How much did you pay?
cp199129
$100
secondtrumpet
That. Is a great find. If it's solid wood it's easily worth 5 times that. Maybe even more.
