I'm repairing a wing back chair and need about a dozen leather tacks. I thought they all look the same, so not sure how many different type there are to choose from. I'm matching existing tacks, but they are fairly standard antique brass looking. Smooth with not other detail.

Hi John, there is an upholstery supply house at 30th and Shadeland in Indy. The name escapes me right now but if you need it let me know.
