With surface wear and scattered scratches, most notably to the tabletop and to the painted central scene; the tabletop broken in three and professional restored, the Y-shaped break starting 2:30 extending into the center just behind the head of the female figure seated in the foreground, and splitting to form a Y, the lower crack extending slightly at a diagonal and issuing at the rim just to the left of the quatrefoil cartouche of flowers, the upper crack extending in a slight curve through the head of the seated galante at the far left, curving down to exit at 8 o'clock at the rim; the breaks delicately overpainted, the entirety of the surface oversprayed; in some areas the blue overpaint is starting to flake at the rim, the color held in place by the spray; a metal disk applied to the underside to support the breaks; the stand with scattered nicks and small chips to the applied leaves and flowers, several restored; the top and stand secured with threaded metal-mounts, original to its design; stable and ready to be placed.
