Why this standard height table base earns its place
Cast iron table bases bring weight and permanence to a dining space—they're stable under real-world use, they don't flex or rattle, and they're built to last years of daily service without maintenance. This Bolero base uses a twin-leg design, which means the footprint is clean and narrow—there's room for knees and bags under the table, which matters in tight spaces. At 720 mm height, it's standard for café and restaurant seating, and at 740 mm square, it suits a 110 × 70 cm top perfectly.
The genius of this base is its compatibility: it's pre-drilled to accept a range of Bolero tabletop brands—Duroflat, Durolight, Compact Exterior, Lamidur, and Werzalit—so you're not locked into a single aesthetic. You can assemble the base and drop in a solid wood top for warmth, a laminate for durability, or an outdoor-grade composite if the table needs to live outside sometimes. The cast iron is finished in charcoal black, which photographs well and hides wear better than chrome or raw metal.
This is a 2-pack, so you're buying two complete bases at once—enough for one substantial table or the start of a matching pair. Cast iron weighs 11 kg per base, so assembly is straightforward but not solo work. Once bolted down, the table won't shift under service, even if your guests are energetic.
