Pedestal tables are a delightful alternative to the standard four-legged table. Pedestal table designs can range in styles and sizes, and also include more than one pedestal for additional support. Osborne’s wide selection of unfinished ready to assemble pedestal kits makes the perfect support for any table design!
Whether you are looking for a contemporary, transitional, or modern style table, Osborne has just the right pedestal kit for you. Styles range from narrow and reeded, to mission, to curved and more. The mission style pedestal kit is the perfect fit for a simple, arts and crafts style table. Meanwhile, the Shallowford Pedestal kit adds unrivaled depth and dimension with a simple, elegant silhouette.
Unfinished pedestal table base come in dining table height sizes. Pedestals are sold as a kit (base and feet), or separately. Due to the specific design of each foot and center, it is recommended that you choose feet designed to fit their specific matching base. Pedestal parts will come sanded and pre-drilled with hardware installed. The top of the base will have 4 hanger bolts installed. The bottom of the base will be pre-drilled to fit the 2 hanger bolts on each foot.
The hanger bolts on the top of each pedestal attach to a «plate» which will then attach to stretchers or a table slide. Most of Osborne’s pedestal kits are 25″ tall; this allows the plate and stretcher/slide to add additional height to the table base. Many woodworkers make their own plate system to attach their table top to the pedestal though if you would like you can purchase on from Osborne.
