Abstract
A spring clip fastened panel for furniture and the like is disclosed comprising a frame forming a surround about a recess for receiving a panel, said frame having inwardly facing edge surfaces bounding the recess and shaped to define a retaining lip to support a panel in the recess. A panel fits into the recess and is supported against the retaining lip. The edge surfaces include a groove in the plane of the panel, and generally U-shaped spring clips having first legs which are inserted in the grooves along approximately diagonal paths inclined to the plane of the grooves and retained in a stressed condition in the grooves by second legs integrally joined to the first legs and having lips at their ends which press against the edge of the panel thereby retaining the panel in the recess.
