In order to purchase correctly, it is important to know several parameters. So before you run to purchase, avoid mistakes and read the following lines. They will sort it out for you.

The first thing to notice is the design style

There are several ways of designing table legs, you need to check with yourself which style you want. Do you want a minimalist style or a more luxurious look?
Thick wooden table legs are considered more classic, rustic and Provencal, just like we see in our grandmothers house or in ancient castles. In fact, this is a very popular style today. People are going back to the middle of the modern century, which is actually the furniture design style of the 1950s, so the designers created organically designed furniture. 

The classic styles such as metal table legs such as Mission, French Country, Sheraton, William and Mary and Shaker are also considered a popular choice. They have some additional options such as straight legs or spiral legs that add sophistication to the design.

The second thing is the thickness of table legs

To understand what thickness you need, there are several parameters you need to take into account.

  1. What is the thickness of the table top? For a thick plate like a thick wooden plate, thick legs are suitable to hold the weight of the plate, and vice versa. Thin legs are suitable for a thin plate like a glass plate. Sometimes, a thick plate is combined with thin legs. It all depends on the design style you are thinking about and what fits the rest of the furniture in the house. 
  2. Depends on the length of the table. If the length of the table is two and a half meters, thick legs are suitable. However, thin legs are suitable for a table that is eighty meters long. 
  3. Another point that will affect the thickness of the table legs: check how many legs the table stands on. If the table has six legs, then thinner legs will fit, and for four legs, thick legs will be allowed. There are tables with two legs and even one leg. All of these affect the thickness of the table legs. 

Third parameter - the height of the table legs

It's not about something complicated. The rules for determining the height depend on the type of table you purchase:

pedestrian the coffee table They are usually 40 cm to 45 cm tall.

pedestrian bar table They are usually 90 cm to 110 cm tall. Taking into account the height of a bar stool of 65 cm on average. There should be a difference of 20 cm on average between the bar stools and the table to allow sitting with a slight tilt. 

pedestrian Dining room table They are usually 66 cm to 73 cm tall. 

And the most important thing - the use of the table

Ask yourself what uses you need the table for. Whether for beauty or everyday use. This can help you determine which legs will fit the table. A coffee table will suit weaker and more delicate legs compared to a dining table on which more weight is placed. 

Additional tips for the right choice:

Pay attention to the thickness of your table top. This adds to the overall height of the table. So take that into account as well.
When you order the table, ask the seller how thick the legs are. Sometimes a thickness of 5 cm sounds quite narrow to us, but the truth is that such a thickness is considered a thick leg. 

Bbar tables And at dining tables, since we sit inside the table, it is important that you know that the thicker the table legs, the less seating space inside the table will allow. Take that into account. 

You will also need to take into account where the feet are located. If you want the legs to be the focal point of the table, usually these are the legs that are at the top of the table. Such a situation will cost you two seats in the same place. You don't want those sitting at the head of the table to have no room for their knees.
