I have tried Home Dept. but no luck. The armshell has the original shock mounts, (it's branded with the c and star symbol) which look like they are in good condition, I just need some screws. Any suggestions on where to find them and what size??? I bought an armshell and the rocker base but am stuck finding the right screws to mount the rocker onto the shell.

I love Eames furniture. I just got an Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman and am proud to say I have a legitimate piece of artwork in my house! I want to buy a Saarinen chair and I'm thinking I'm going to buy it from the first place I bought my chair, officedesigns.com, because they were so knowledgeable and friendly, plus they shipped it to me for free. I like the rocker though because its got a more at-home-feeling to it. So pretty! I love Eames furniture.
