I bought a genuine Bertoia bar stool by Knoll at Lincoln Antique Fair and the flying saucer shaped floor glides are missing. The leg rods just end on ball shapes. Does anyone know where I can get four of these? It has no seat or back pad either but I think I'll stay with the sculptural look, not cover the frame and put up with the slight lack of comfort unless I can buy the seat pads for a reasonable price.

Hi
You may be able to find vintage pads for relatively cheap, e.g. on eBay.

Thank you for the advice. I'v...
Thank you for the advice I will certainly look on ebay- I've sourced a set of 'generic' chrome tilt adjustable feet ( floor glides) from Swivel UK. A bit of research on Google got me the correct term for the 'feet' and although they were v cheap at a variety of office furniture accessory suppliers the stems were too long at 25mm and I needed M6 by 10mm. Knoll USA were very helpful but the shipping charges are high and of course I could end up paying customs charges and Parcelforce handling fees.
'The Home' at Salts Mill were also very helpful and can supply new Knoll seat pads.
