Looking for a different size?
Customize your table leg at Hairpin made-to-measure by choosing from the following angles:
straight leg (90°) or angled leg.
L'ORIGINAL is the set of hairpin table legs that lifts a top to 71 or 90 cm, fixes with three screws and keeps the floor clear underneath, under a dining table as much as under a kitchen island.
Made in France, each leg is bent from a single bar of Ø 12 mm solid round steel: the two rods run down in a V, meet in a loop at floor level and are welded to the two wings of a corner mounting plate measuring 126 × 126 mm, 46 mm wide and 3 mm thick.
That plate sits in the corner of the top, and it dictates how the leg is fitted: a hairpin goes on in sets of 4, one per corner, where a frame base sits in pairs at each end. The support point moves as far as possible from the centre, the overhang shortens and the top deflects less between two legs.
The rods are spaced 100 mm apart at the top on both heights: the 90 cm leg therefore stands more upright and more slender than the 71 cm one, and its V offers less width against sideways push.
Each leg holds 25 kg and takes tops from 40 to 180 cm in solid wood, plywood, marble, granite, glass or recycled plastic, up to Ø 90 cm on round and oval shapes.
Powder coating bakes a polyester powder onto the steel, with no solvent: the film covers the weld bead and the bend, where liquid paint thins out in corners.
It resists moisture, which allows a covered terrace, a conservatory or a wet room.
Wood screws and self-adhesive felt pads are included. Three Ø 6 mm holes are all it takes: place the plate in the corner, pilot-drill, screw, and the leg is on in minutes.
On a glass, marble or granite top, bond the plate instead of drilling it, using a flexible MS polymer adhesive rated for stone or glass.
On a melamine or soft-core worktop, check the panel is rigid enough before turning it into a table: those boards are designed to rest on cabinets.
For a matching coffee table or TV unit, L'ORIGINAL COFFEE TABLE in 30 and 40 cm uses the same design. For a longer or heavier top, LE COSTAUD adds a third rod at the same two heights, and L'ORIGINAL MADE-TO-MEASURE is configurable from 16 to 115 cm, angled or straight at 90°.
Dining table and desk at 71 cm
With a top 3 to 5 cm thick, 71 cm gives a finished table between 74 and 76 cm, the standard height for a dining chair. With no rail, the whole volume under the top stays free: knees clear it, chairs tuck right in, and a pedestal drawer unit rolls under a desk without hitting a stretcher.
Kitchen island and high dining spot at 90 cm
90 cm lines a fitted top up with a kitchen worktop, which usually sits between 90 and 95 cm: the table extends the island instead of creating a second level. For a proper poseur table at 105 or 110 cm, go to the made-to-measure version, which reaches 115 cm.
Hallway console, dressing table and desk return
On a top 25 to 35 cm deep, the hairpin silhouette disappears against the wall and leaves the skirting board visible. At 71 cm, a 100 to 140 cm board becomes a hallway console, a dressing table or an L-shaped desk return set at right angles to an existing worktop.
Covered terrace, conservatory and workshop
Under an awning, a closed pergola or in a conservatory, the leg carries a terrace table in teak, reconstituted stone or recycled plastic. Powder coating takes temperature swings, the damp air of a utility room and the splashes of a workshop bench.
DIY projects and commercial fit-out
Bent, welded and coated in France, it suits a flea-market board as readily as café tables, coworking desks and retail display tables. The eight finishes match a base to a colour scheme without repainting, from RAL 1023 yellow to RAL 5002 ultramarine blue.

The ORIGINAL is a table leg that can support a load of 25 kilos per leg.
This pin-shaped steel table base is suitable for tables and tops of all shapes: rectangular, round, square, oval.
For square and rectangular shapes, we recommend a table top length of between 40 and 160 cm.
For round and oval shapes, we recommend a maximum table top diameter of 90 cm.
We supply screws and protective glides with our table legs.
Our legs are designed to be used with raw, solid wood or plywood tops.
You can also use tops made of other materials, such as marble, granite, recycled plastic or glass.
If you use a table top in glass, granite or marble, the legs can be glued on, without having to be screwed down.
Please note: if you're using a worktop to make a table, check that it's suitable for the purpose.
Some worktops need to be supported by boxes, as they are made from soft materials such as melamine.
Yes, we also manufacture our L'ORIGINAL base in custom heights from 16 to 115 cm.
It's also available with a 90° straight leg or a sloping leg with our made-to-measure model.
Yes, but with the right finish.
This table base is available in nine professional-quality finishes that don't just look good - they protect.
Fine-texture powder-coated finishes: matt black (RAL 9005), white (RAL 9003), cream (RAL 9001), green (RAL 6011), yellow (RAL 1023), blue (RAL 5002).
Metallic sandblasted effect powder-coated finishes: copper (90354), gold (Y2316F).
Powder coating involves baking electrostatic polyester powder at 200°C. The result? A 60-80 micron protective coating that resists :
- Humidity: Rust-free, sheltered outdoor use (covered terrace, veranda)
- UV: No discoloration in sunlight
- Impact: Harder than simple varnish
- Corrosion: Integrated anti-corrosion protection.
It's THE professional finish par excellence for furniture that lasts

These finishes are moisture- and UV-resistant, and suitable for sheltered indoor and outdoor use.
