Finishing options: customization to your style

Standard finish: natural beauty

The 'Standard' option features legs made of solid wood in their natural beauty. Special protective coatings preserve the natural texture and color of the wood, providing long-term protection against external influences.

This finish is ideal for eco-style interiors, where authenticity and natural materials are valued. The natural beauty of wood creates a sense of connection with nature and adds warmth to modern interiors.

Under enamel: unlimited color options

The 'under enamel' preparation transforms wooden furniture legs into a universal design element. The ability to paint in any RAL palette color or create unique shades opens up limitless creative possibilities.

Multi-stage surface preparation ensures ideal paint adhesion and long-lasting coating. The enamel surface is easy to clean and resistant to mechanical damage.

Under tinting: preserving texture with color change

Tinting allows you to purchase furniture legs that preserve the natural beauty of wood grain while achieving the desired color tone. This is an ideal compromise between naturalness and design requirements.

It is possible to imitate expensive wood species, create an aged effect, or give a modern look using trendy gray, white, or colored pigments.

Technical specifications and load capacity

Calculated loads

Furniture legs of size 125 × 81 × 45 mm are designed to withstand evenly distributed loads of up to 200–250 kg per set of four legs. This provides broad application possibilities for most medium-sized furniture items.

The structural safety margin is at least 100%, ensuring safe operation even when nominal loads are exceeded during use.

Material properties

Wood moisture does not exceed 8–10%, which eliminates deformation and cracking during operation. Special drying in chambers with controlled microclimate ensures dimensional stability.

Material density ensures an optimal balance of strength and weight, which is important for transporting and installing finished products.

Production process: craftsmanship in every detail

Raw material selection: the foundation of quality

The production of premium furniture legs begins with careful selection of wood. Only materials of the highest grades, strictly selected for density, absence of defects, and beauty of grain, are used.

Each blank undergoes visual and instrumental inspection. Wood with any defects — knots, cracks, resin pockets — is rigorously rejected.

Modern Processing Technologies

High-precision CNC machines ensure ideal geometry for each leg. Dimensional tolerances do not exceed ±0.1 mm, which is critically important for premium-quality furniture.

Turning is performed in several passes with gradually decreasing abrasive tool grit. This guarantees a perfectly smooth surface without traces of mechanical processing.

Quality control at every stage

Each wooden furniture leg undergoes multi-stage quality control. It is checked not only for compliance with geometric dimensions but also for the absence of internal stresses that could lead to deformation in the future.

Finished products undergo load tests with forces significantly exceeding working loads. Only after successfully passing all tests does the leg receive a quality mark.

Installation and fastening: professional approach

Methods of mounting

For furniture legs MN-172.2, various mounting methods are used, the choice depending on the type of furniture and expected loads:

Screw connection — the most reliable method for heavy furniture. A metal screw is screwed into the leg body, passes through the housing, and is secured with a nut and wide washer.

Conform — modern fastening for furniture panels. Provides strong connection and allows for multiple disassembly and reassembly.

Wooden screw — classic method for light furniture. Requires pre-drilling to prevent cracking.

Installation rules

Before installation, accurately mark mounting locations using templates and measuring tools. Legs for tables must be installed strictly perpendicular to the surface to ensure maximum stability.

Horizontal alignment must be checked using a construction level. If necessary, precise adjustment of position is performed.

Style solutions: universal application

Scandinavian minimalism

In Scandinavian interiors, natural wood legs MN-172.2 embody the philosophy of hygge — simplicity, functionality, and connection with nature. Natural finish highlights the beauty of the material and creates a cozy atmosphere.

Light tinting or white enamel helps create the characteristic Scandinavian atmosphere of freshness and spaciousness. Combination with natural textiles enhances the sense of comfort.

Modern minimalism

The geometric shape of furniture legs perfectly aligns with minimalist principles. Clear lines and simplicity do not conflict with the core concept of the style, while the natural material adds the necessary warmth.

Monochromatic finish — black or white enamel — transforms wooden elements into stylish accents that support the overall color scheme of the interior.

Loft and industrial style

In loft interiors, wooden legs may receive special treatment to resemble aged metal or rough wood. Contrast with brick walls and metallic elements creates the characteristic industrial atmosphere.

Dark tinting under wenge or graphite enamel helps integrate natural elements into urban aesthetics.

Modern classic

In classic interiors, legs may receive patina finish or imitation of valuable wood species. Their restrained geometry harmonizes beautifully with traditional decorative elements.

Golden patina or artificial aging adds a noble vintage finish, especially prized in classic styles.

Combination with various countertop materials

Glass surfaces

Legs for glass tables create a striking contrast between the warmth of natural wood and the cold transparency of glass. Such a combination visually lightens the furniture and adds a modern touch.

Special shock-absorbing pads protect glass from scratches and evenly distribute load on supports.

Natural Stone

Combining with marble, granite, or travertine creates premium luxury furniture. Wooden legs soften the coldness of stone and add organic warmth to the interior.

It is important to consider the significant weight of stone countertops when calculating load on legs and choosing mounting methods.

Wooden countertops

Combining solid wood legs with wooden countertops creates cohesive, harmonious compositions. Both tonal combinations within one color palette and contrasting solutions are possible.

Light-colored legs paired with dark countertops—or vice versa—create interesting visual accents.

Ergonomic advantages of compact size

Optimal clearance

A height of 125 mm provides ideal clearance for modern furniture requirements. Vacuum cleaners 8–10 cm tall can easily pass under furniture, ensuring thorough cleaning without needing to move items.

This height is sufficient to protect the furniture body from moisture during wet cleaning, yet does not create the impression of 'high legs,' which may visually weigh down the structure.

Visual perception of space

Compact furniture legs create the impression of more space in a room. Furniture raised above the floor appears lighter and airier, which is especially important in small rooms.

The visible space under furniture visually increases room area and creates a sense of order and cleanliness.

Ecological aspects and sustainable development

Sustainable Forestry

Furniture legs made of oak and beech are produced exclusively from wood harvested from FSC-certified forests. This guarantees adherence to sustainable forestry and forest resource regeneration principles.

Each batch of raw material has documented provenance, eliminating the use of wood from illegal logging.

Biodegradability and recyclability

Unlike plastic and composite materials, natural wooden legs are fully biodegradable. At the end of their life cycle, they can be recycled without harming the environment.

The possibility of restoration and reuse significantly extends the lifespan of products, aligning with circular economy principles.

Carbon footprint

Wood is a natural carbon sink. Using wooden furniture elements helps sequester CO2 from the atmosphere, making such furniture carbon-neutral or even carbon-negative.

Economic aspects of selection

Investment Appeal

Buying premium-quality furniture legs is a long-term investment in interior beauty and functionality. The high initial cost is offset by long service life and restoration potential.

High-quality wooden legs retain their consumer value for decades, unlike cheaper alternative materials.

Impact on the cost of finished furniture

Using solid wood legs significantly increases the consumer value and market value of finished furniture. Buyers are willing to pay extra for quality and natural materials.

For furniture manufacturers, this enables positioning their products in the premium segment with appropriate profit margins.

Care and Maintenance: Preserving Beauty

Daily care

Wooden furniture legs require minimal, but regular, care. Daily dry wiping with a soft cloth removes dust and maintains the natural wood sheen.

For wet cleaning, use a well-wrung cloth and immediately dry the surface. Avoid using aggressive cleaning agents.

Protection and Prevention

Regular use of special wood care products maintains the protective properties of the finish and extends the lifespan of legs.

Protective felt pads prevent scratches on flooring and reduce noise when moving furniture.

Restoration and Rehabilitation

Minor defects can be locally restored using wax pencils or special compounds. Serious damage requires professional treatment with full sanding and re-finishing.

Practical tips for choosing and purchasing
