A stand or stool includes a top providing an upwardly facing supporting surface and a downwardly facing surface including a plurality of locking channels. The stand or stool includes a plurality of legs, each leg having a top portion for engagement in a respective locking channel on the downwardly facing surface of the top, and a foot portion for resting on a floor or article of furniture. The legs are readily disengageable from the top by sliding the leg top portions from the locking channels, making the stand collapsible. The stand includes a brace which is generally ring-like and sized to slide downwardly over the top and legs. A locking protrusion is provided on the outer edge of each leg for engaging a respective pocket provided on the brace to lock the legs in spaced-apart relation to one another. In the illustrated embodiment, the locking channels extend generally radially from the center of the top. Each leg includes an inner edge which is provided with a stacking support. The stacking supports permit vertical stacking of stands, each stand in a vertical stack receiving the top of the next subjacent stand in the stack in nested orientation.
