Thanks for the help guys.
I think you are right about it being a side table. I vaguely remember that there might be a pair to this table somewhere. Things have been coming out of storage. Illinois makes sense. She lived in Chicago and we are now in California. The top is wood. I don't know enough about wood to know what kind, but the pattern reminds me of walnut. The cane-esque/ bamboo detail is the same wood that the rest of the legs are, it's just carved to replicate it. I don't see any other markings or numbers to age it other than the big WEIMAN. It does look like a sticker must have peeled off years ago.
