News — hairpin legs

Where did these trendy table legs originate? It's a question you might have asked yourself at one point or another. Hairpin legs were created out of the necessity for limited materials, superior strength, and simplicity. Henry P. Glass first invented hairpin legs in 1941 and we're glad he did! Since their inception, hairpin legs have been used on many different furniture types and are most recognizable throughout mid-century modern design. It's no wonder that hairpin legs are so trendy however, as their versatility is unparalleled. The ability to furnish an entire home for very little is quite attractive to many...
