    I'm trying to help my aunt identify this table. Her father in law said it was sent to his mother during the Korean War. The man who sent it watched someone hand carve the table, and he paid about $50 for it. This was 1954.

    The little drawer only opens when you release a little catch along the side. My aunt foundthis newspaper article that mentions the table, but it doesn't give enough information for me to track it down.

    She wants to know if the table is actually valuable or if it's just a nice family heirloom. We really appreciate any help you can give us!

      What are you trying to track? Article tells everything about this table. As far as Value, its violate CW policy. You will have to check on ebay or online.
