ABSTRACT:
A piece of furniture, for example, a table, having a frame, supported on legs and carrying a table top, embodied with two parallel separate longitudinal profiles and at least two connected transverse struts and which has hollow recesses, accessible from an underside thereof, for the upper end sections of the legs. A simple and stable leg fixing is thus achieved, whereby coil-section shaped contact elements are arranged on circumferential inner surfaces in the recesses, and contact elements, cooperating with the above for a play-free fixing of the legs, are arranged on the external surface of the end sections, or conversely the spiral section shaped contact elements are embodied on the end sections and the contact elements are embodied in the recesses.
