This should be easy 😉 ….
I have a Peter Hvidt boomerang chair with what I understand to be the early production legs that used rubber feet rather than the later self-leveling metal feet. The rubber tips (feet) on my chair are missing. They are just completely ground away, and I’m guessing that is why France & Son tweaked the design to use metal feet. Does anyone know where I could get a set of the later production legs with the metal self-leveling feet, or just a set of the self-leveling feet without the legs?
None of the photos show my chair, but they do illustrate what I referred to as early production (rubber feet) and later production (metal feet). Thanks for any ideas.
I think I can help.
last year I bought the same chair with conventional/later self-leveling legs and one of the brass feet was missing.
A guy on Ebay out of Michigan was selling entire reproduction leg sets. I only needed the tip so I worked out a deal and sent him the one leg and he had his machinist replace the foot/tip with a new copper one and mail it back to me. That said, clearly this guy and his machinist are making entire legs. His seller handle on ebay is "lodeot" (if you go to ebay and check the small bock next to the blue "Search" button, you can search by seller. I have the guy's address but not his email so this best way to reach him. I believe his name is Otto. Very nice and fair. Good luck!
