    Unfortunately, I do not know much about this coffee table other than it absolutely beautiful. It has plenty of ebony and ivory inlaid on every part and hand carved floral pattern around the table top. To my best knowledge it is made of Rosewood and it is from the late 19th Century. I am uncertain if the origin is from India, Anglo Indian, or Middle Eastern. My guess is Anglo Indian/Indonesian since I did not notice any distinctive characters of the other cultures. I have seen many octagonal tables that seem like the same sort of patterns but none as a coffee table. Anyone have any thoughts?
    Thanks for looking!
