Bordesley ball foot in oak, African walnut or pine
Prices are for one item, in GBP. The price for your country shows at checkout. Your basket opens on farwinger.com, where you also see delivery.
The cabinet is built, the top is flat, and it sits on the floor like a box. You wanted feet. The ones you can buy are either too plain, or a ball with a hole that you have to drill and glue yourself.
The Bordesley foot is a solid wood ball with a dowel turned from the same piece, so there is no joint between the foot and the peg. Bore a hole to suit, add glue and push it home. Choose oak, African walnut or pine, as a set or as a trade box.
The cabinet stands on something.
About the Bordesley ball foot
The ball is 7.6 cm across, which is 3.0 inches or 76 millimetres, with the dowel below it. The table lists every wood and pack with its price.
Read the table by wood first, then by pack. The set suits a single piece of furniture, and the trade box suits a workshop fitting out a run of pieces, so the price in each row is for the whole set or the whole box.
Cabinets, sideboards, chests, blanket boxes, ottomans, bed frames and chairs. Cabinetmakers and upholsterers can order the trade box, which is priced for repeat work.
If you need a threaded fixing instead of a dowel, ask for a bespoke quote and say what the piece is.
Choose oak for a piece that will be oiled, African walnut for a dark piece that needs no colour, and pine for anything that will be painted. Order the set for one piece of furniture, and the trade box when you are fitting out a run of them.
