    (57) The item of furniture, typically a craftsman's trestle, includes a generally rectangular top (10) having four legs (15) pivotally mounted in inverted channel-section brackets (12) with opposed side walls (13), the pivots (16) being relatively inclined and movable along slots (17) in the opposed side walls, such that the legs can be pivotted between an extended, supporting position in which the legs are relatively splayed, and a stowed position in which the leg of each pair overlies a corresponding one of the other pair.
