Condition Report
Old patches to the top
I think two legs show old grafts to the bottoms of the feet see images
The block has probably been off and refixed but in the wrong orientation as the tabletop now flips over a single leg rather the tradition of flipping over two legs this is backed up by some extraneous wedges seen the through tenon on the block
All honest workmanlike repairs rather than restoration
