The top, although now sliding, has been hinged at some point as we can see where the hinges were on the underside of the games board and on the body . There are 2 cracks running through the games board which also show on the other side and there is a piece of veneer missing from one of the feet. The leather work to the interior of the table is also slightly lifting in places. There are 5 sections of veneer missing form around the edges of the table. Both drawer handles have damage.
