My father-in-law recently passed away and left us his prized possession- a hand-carved, teak wood coffee table. The table was originally purchased in Sept of 1970 in Vietnam while he was stationed there with the US Military. We still have the original receipt as well. Can someone take a look and let us know if you think it's worth anything?
Thank You

It does not open up- it has a glass top that rests on top of the carving that can come off though.

Oh. Well then yes, I guess it does open up. ;D Sorry, I thought you were asking if it had some sort of storage or something (which it does not-other than a small drawer on the front side).
Thanks

No worries. I'm not afraid of taking a little well deserved ribbing once in a while.
