-----Where to get old iron bed feet
I recently purchased an old iron bed from a junk store and it is missing two feet. Does anyone know where I can purchase feet for old iron beds?

Try nearest bronze foundry or professional metal conservator.
Copies of legs can be electroformed too (or cast in hard plastic,and then coloured as you like -much cheaper). Hope it helps and good luck!
