Abstract

The furniture leg has a foot from which a lifting column projects transversely that comprises an external tube and an internal tube that is telescopingly movable relative to the external tube. The external tube is attached to a fastening part of the foot. In order to configure the furniture leg in such a way that the foot and the lifting column can be connected to one another such that deposit locations for dirt and the like are not formed, the exterior side of the external tube at least over most of its circumference passes continuously into the exterior side of the fastening part. In this way, at the transition from the foot to the lifting column no deposit location for dirt is formed. The furniture leg is suitable for tables of any kind, chairs, organ benches and the like.
