Default Where to find large cabs

I am trying to find a good source for large cabs to bead around. I know
about FMG, I can't seem to find any wholesale not in China. Retail
would be ok too if it's good stuff. I'd especially like to find 38mm
round and 30x40 oval and/or free form 40mm and larger with good prices.
Thanks in advance for any tips.

Ingrid

Have you tried Rio Grande? I haven't checked their cab prices, but
their quality is always excellent. I have a catalog from Thunderbird
and they have some smaller cabs and lots of free form cabs listed, but
I know they have many items not listed in their catalogs.

Are you looking only for semi-precious? I make dichroic/art glass cabs
and could make you some that size if you like. Let me know. Thanks!

Thanks Becki, that's just what I was looking for!

I might be interested in dichroic cabs later, do you have a website or
pics?

I have been burned a few times buying cabs off ebay, oversaturation of
scans and so on.

I don't know if everybody heard of this already - Rio Grande now has
their catalog online...finally! Makes spending way too much money even
easier

Cheers,
Carla

I don't have a website right now but if you are ever interested I'd be
happy to send you pics. I use a digital camera to photograph my work
and I stand behind what I sell. If you're not happy with them I'll
refund your money. I've sold hundreds of my polymer clay and dichroic
glass pendants and I've never had anyone not be happy with them.
Anyway, let me know if you are interested!
