Update: World of Tile has now closed. I’ll leave this story up, for a while at least, to show some of the cool stuff they had.
If you are looking for authentic vintage mid century table legs — for a new project or as a replacement on your dinette, for example –you can get these from World of Tile, too. They stock a large variety of table legs — all authentic inventory spanning as far back as 1957.
World of Tile also has hairpin table legs in a number of sizes and styles.
Hi I scored this really awesome bar http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m122/yesteryearz/IMG_2460_zpsprijvj3w.jpg
and when I got it home I realized one of the chair feet was missing! I have searched and searched online but can’t find anything even close to a replacement. Anyone have any leads? Thanks!

Lovely bar! See these stories, I’m thinking IFSCO is who I’d check first: https://retrorenovation.com/search-results/?q=ferrules
Good and bad news. We struggled to find any quality toe caps ourselves. So we designed our own line of toe caps, solid brass, in six finishes. However, they are made specifically to fit our McCobb table legs. The chances of them being a perfect fit for your existing table legs is small.

Did anyone ever find out where you can find the gold replacement caps for the wood mid century legs?
not that I know of, Genevieve. I’ll keep my eye out…
I so wish Genevieve! I really can’t complete my dry bar until I find a brass replacement cap. And I’ve looked everywhere! All I can find is replacement legs… If I have to end up buying 4 legs that doesn’t make my bargain find a real bargain any more. 🙁
I also need the end caps for some chair legs. I can’t believe that no one sells them, it seems you can get pretty much get anything on the internet these days, but I have searched high and low and cannot find anything… ;(
whitechapel-ltd.com
vintagehardware.com
ebay – search brass toe caps or feet
vandykes.com
ace hardware near me also has the same toe caps that are on the waddell legs, sold by packs of 4 for about $10
I also got a small piece of brass that can be wrapped around & glued or soldered together from ace hardware – the one I got is about 12″x1.5″
Thanks for the site recommends. I’ve previously browsed vintagehardware.com and eBay, still haven’t found what I’m looking for though (maybe I’m being a little neurotic about this?!) I think I may just end up leaving the legs bare.

Just stumbled across your site looking for some replacement legs for a dresser I’ve got. The legs that are currently on it are 4 1/4″ cone legs. I’m missing one leg. By chance do you have one leg available for sale?
Thanks and keep up this excellent website!
I do not sell anything here — you need to refer to the retailers I feature…
