General light fading, minor scratches and stains to the top, some minor 'lifting' to the brass stringing with two lengths of stringing loss 31cm and 5cm.
Several losses to the veneer on the table edge, 6cm, 4cm, two at 3cm and a further 2cm gap.
Evidence of historic woodworm and restoration to the underside braces although this is not detrimental to the tables stability.
Minor chips and scuffs to the plinth base, commensurate with age and use, one of the sabre supports appears to have been repaired.
Overall the table appears sound with no play in the joints, there is some general wear and light restoration commensurate with age and use.
