One table has a lowercase "j", no other marks to be found. There are nearly identical, altho one a little darker, slightly warped top.

    Any ideas on age, origin? I love them!

    First impression: Not old, probably late 20th Century, origin in southeast Asia or the Philippines.

    Love the way the lions use the table as a scratching post, the way cats do. I normally wouldn't condone it, but these cats can't do any harm.;)
    My first thought was Java, Indonesia, and recent. If Indonesian, it could be teakwood.
    The Philippines are also in SE Asia, btw, neighbours of Indonesia.:)

    My thoughts too. New-ish and Asia.

    Ordinarily I get rather cross with new antiques, however those tables must be adorable! :):)

    The kitties are of course the best part. Just ask my kitty.
