Welcome to the world of table legs
We would like to introduce you to the different types of table legs available online.
The traditional 4-leg
We all know it and in fact you can never go wrong with this table leg, but we will name it anyway: the 4-leg. Classic and timeless, whether under a rectangle, square or oval.
Shape | Possible | Shape | Possible |
Rectangle | Yes | Oval | Yes |
Circle | Yes | Paperclip | Yes |
Square | Yes | Triangle | Yes |
Matrix leg, stubborn and tough
Enormously popular among round, oval or egg-shaped table tops: the Matrix leg. The legs come together like a spider, giving it a modern look. With this leg, too, you can easily create a sturdy, industrial piece of furniture.
Shape | Possible | Shape | Possible |
Rectangle | Yes | Oval | Yes |
Circle | Yes | Paperclip | Yes |
Square | Yes | Triangle | Yes |
Go industrial, go U-legged
The U leg, the name says it all, this table leg forms the letter U. This U is mounted on both sides of the dining table. If you want to create a playful effect, you can mount the legs slightly more towards the centre of the table.
Shape | Possible | Shape | Possible |
Rectangle | Yes | Oval | Yes |
Circle | No | Paperclip | Yes |
Square | Yes | Triangle | No |
X leg, playful and timeless
The X leg is also a notorious table leg in interior design land. Place X legs on both sides of the table top and you create a robust and sturdy piece of furniture in no time.
Shape | Possible | Shape | Possible |
Rectangle | Yes | Oval | Yes |
Circle | No | Paperclip | Yes |
Square | Yes | Triangle | No |
A-leg, elegant and robust at the same time
Slightly different from the U leg is the A leg. We often see this leg under a rectangular tabletop, yet it also looks great under an oval or paperclip.
Shape | Possible | Shape | Possible |
Rectangle | Yes | Oval | Yes |
Circle | No | Paperclip | Yes |
Square | Yes | Triangle | No |
The butterfly leg, a minimalist topper
Give your round or square table top that extra something with this butterfly leg (the butterfly leg is also available in larger versions). The thin tubes create a designer look. The butterfly leg looks minimalist and calm, which is a nice addition when space is limited.
Shape | Possible | Shape | Possible |
Rectangle | Yes | Oval | Yes |
Circle | Yes | Paperclip | Yes |
Square | Yes | Triangle | Yes |
Hairpin leg, back from the road
A rather subtle leg in the list is the hairpin leg. This leg has a minimalist look, making them fit in nicely with the scandinavian interior style. The hairpin is back in fashion, use it for a desk or dining table!
Shape | Possible | Shape | Possible |
Rectangle | Yes | Oval | Yes |
Circle | Yes | Paperclip | Yes |
Square | Yes | Triangle | Yes |
Of course, there are dozens more legs in all kinds, thicknesses and materials that could also be perfect for your tabletop. We have listed here a few popular legs that are common in today's interiors.
What height should I go for?
Table legs and bases are available in different heights, the standard height of table legs for a dining table is around 71.0 cm. There are no standard sizes for a coffee table, which makes designing a coffee table extra fun, you can unleash your creativity on it. Go for three different coffee tables that overlap or a long oval table. TIP: Go for a size that is no higher than the sofa. This can make the whole thing look a bit cluttered.
