Table with marble top + bird nest carving

By Poormoosebear, 8 December, 2013
Description

My mother-in-law has died and this was a piece of furniture in her home. Unfortunately, I know nothing about furniture or antiques.  It's a beautiful wooden table with a yellow marble top and intricate designs of a bird's nest.  

Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Category
American Furniture
Medium
wood (don't know what type) with marble top
Distinguishing marks
Bird's nest carving
Condition
Good
Size and dimensions of this item
It measures roughly 4' (48") long x 32" wide and 31" tall.
Date Period
Guessing 1900?
Weight
Guessing - marble top about 50 pounds, wood table frame about 20 pounds.
History
I chose condition as "good" because the marble top has 1 (maybe 2) cracks which have been glued back together. The crack is on a corner. We do not remember any nicks, scratches, etc., on the table frame. The table is currently in storage and I am unable to reach it for a more exact inspection.
Price Paid (If known)
