A plinth is a base that is attached instead of or in addition to the base of a column.
This base is usually square and serves as a connecting element between the base of the furniture and the column in antique furniture.
Columns can be found on antique furniture from almost every era. They flank the drawers of chests of drawers and writing furniture or actually have a supporting function in the form of table legs.
