The first question I would ask is where did you get it? Has it been in your family for a while? If so, does anyone in your family know anything about it? There might be some information there that could help determine the value.
Next, take everything you know about the table and the table itself to a qualified appraiser. You can find one at a local antique store or auction house. You should call first and make an appointment. Sometimes you can email them pictures, but they will probably want to see the table in person.
You also might want to get a second opinion, because determining the value of an antique is not an exact science, so you might get two very different values.
Good luck!
