Furniture makers from the Noordoostpolder

Sturdy Legs designs and handcrafts industrial furniture in our own workshop in Emmeloord, the Netherlands. Since 2012, we have developed our own distinctive table models, combining solid wood and steel into strong, recognizable designs.

Our roots

We are the founders and original designers behind the Sturdy Legs table models. Our designs have become recognizable and are now widely imitated. That is why we believe it is important to know the original: every Sturdy Legs model starts with our own design and is developed, refined and handmade by our team.

Our collection includes custom-made industrial tables, bistro tables, desks, seating and steel table bases for homes, offices, hospitality and retail interiors.

When you choose Sturdy Legs, you choose an original design, handmade in the Netherlands with authentic materials and years of craftsmanship.

Our workshop

Everything is made in our own workshop in Emmeloord. Here we saw, weld, sand and finish. Wood and steel come together under one roof, so we see every detail from the first cut to the last coat.

We choose our materials with care: oak, American walnut, heartwood beech, beech or maple for the top. Steel in any RAL colour, or copper, brass or stainless. Height adjustable by crank, handwheel or electric where you need it.

Who we work for

Interior designers, hospitality fitters, shops and offices across Europe rely on us for their projects. We think along with you, from a regulars' table for a menswear store to a conference table for a new office building.

Private customers are just as welcome. A dining table in the exact size of your room, a desk in your own colour, a bench that matches your table. If you can dream it, we can make it.

How we work

What you can count on

Made to measure

Any size, any wood, any colour. We make each piece to your drawing or ours, so it fits the space exactly and works the way you want.

Handmade

Our makers build every table, base and stool by hand in Emmeloord. No production line, just skilled hands and attention to detail.

Short lines

You speak directly with the people who make your furniture. Questions are answered fast and changes are easy to arrange, before and during the build.

We share the passion for aesthetics and craftsmanship with Sturdy-Legs. Our products, spectacle frames, jewelry and watches, can be fully appreciated now. The style fits perfectly, creating a pleasant atmosphere in our store, making customers feel welcome. A job well done by the Sturdy-Legs team.
