One leg has broken next to the mount, causing the table to slightly lean.
There are also two breaks or cracks either side of the triform plinth, supporting the same leg.
Various veneer chips in areas, including some losses to the damaged foot/leg, losses along the edges and to the boulle inlay brass work in areas, together with some lifting of the ebony stringing.
Some old marks to the top and base, with some discolouration, a few water spots in areas, scuffs and scratches as to be expected from age and use.
