Know before you buy
The extended top block provides extra surface area for attaching table aprons, installing drawers, or incorporating shelving. It is specifically designed to offer more structural support and flexibility for custom cabinetry or island builds.
The legs arrive sanded to 150 grit, which is a solid starting point for most finishes. However, because pine is a soft wood, you should apply a wood conditioner before staining to ensure the color absorbs evenly and prevents blotchiness.
At 34.5 inches tall, these legs are specifically designed for kitchen islands or counter-height tables. They will be too tall for a standard 30-inch dining table unless you plan to cut them down to size.
Yes, since these are crafted from pine, you may encounter natural knots and grain patterns. These characteristics are typical for the species and should be considered part of the wood's natural aesthetic.
The concave design is primarily an aesthetic feature intended to provide a coastal look. It does not compromise the structural integrity of the 4-inch wide leg, which remains sturdy enough to support a standard kitchen island or table top.
