Yep.. sure looks like they were cut off. Having done considerable furniture restoration, I can assure you that a competant furniture restorrer can replace those legs in such a way as to make them as good as new. So good that you would have a hard time telling that a restoration was done.
In the normal course of the life of a piece of old furniture it is not uncommon for a leg to be broken off, and there exists methods of properly restoring a broken or, as in this case, a sawed off leg. Although I realize the set is not "original" in it's present state, I actually like the way the set sits lower to the ground with the short legs. It gives it a more contemporary look, like some of the large console sets of the 80's.
