Kartell spare parts: which end cap for which model?
Kartell spare parts: which end cap for which model?
Kartell furniture lasts for decades, its end caps much less: they wear out, turn yellow or get lost, and the leg ends up scratching the floor. We offer compatible replacement end caps, each designed for a specific Kartell chair, armchair or stool. Pick your model below: each set fits one complete seat.

How to identify your model
- Louis Ghost or Victoria Ghost? The Louis Ghost is an armchair, the Victoria Ghost a chair without armrests. Their end caps are not interchangeable: choose the set for your model.
- Charles Ghost: which height? One set for the 46 cm version, another for the 65 cm version.
- Front and rear: on the Louis Ghost, Victoria Ghost and Mr. Impossible, front and rear legs use different end caps. The set contains both, already matched.
- “Ghost-style” copy or another brand: compatibility is only guaranteed with the Kartell model stated. If in doubt, send us a photo.
Why replace the original end caps?
- They don’t turn yellow: unlike the original end caps, our clear end caps stay transparent.
- They protect your floors: a worn or missing end cap lets the leg rub directly on wood or tiles.
- No tools, no glue: simply press them in.
- One set = one complete seat: order as many sets as you have seats.
Replace your end caps in 3 steps
- Remove the old end cap by hand or with flat-nose pliers, protecting the leg with a cloth.
- Clean the end of the leg to remove dust and residue.
- Insert the new end cap straight, with firm pressure. If needed, finish with a rubber mallet.
