One or two tiny scattered surface chips but overall looks to be in good condition but for the breaking away of the top half of the figure on the right, the piece is still here and has been glued in the past and should be easy to re-attach, also a section of restoration to the top left of the head of the left hand figure which has been replaced with some sort of composition, the stand is a reasonable fit but probably not the original, is made from very heavy ebonised timber, probably part of the finial missing from the top of the Buddha's head.
