Abstract

A table comprises a table-top and a plurality of legs fixed to the table-top by means of a plurality of joints which are also used for supporting and interconnecting a series of horizontal cross members extending beneath the table-top. Each joint comprises a base element fixed to the lower surface of the table-top and having a seat in which the upper end of the respective leg is received and clamped by means of a wedge, and a cover fixed to the base element. The facing surfaces of the base element and the cover have recesses which cooperate with each other to define one or more seats in which the corresponding parts of the horizontal cross members are received and clamped.
