faceted glass jewels
Anyone know a good source for faceted glass jewels? I was looking for some
to wire wrap, like this pendant: www.beadbimbo.com/ebay/prong1.jpg I found some, but the quality wasn't too good. I need really clean edges and unchipped corners. I don't know if anyone here does anything with fake gems, but thought I'd ask. I just wanted to make some "pretties" without spending a fortune on them. I just can't afford real or simulated large gems right now. Thanks, -- Jerri www.beadbimbo.com To subscribe to the Beadbimbo mailing list, send a blank email to: |

also, check with GenBead. I don't think they have them on their website,
but they have a huge area with them, that if you were willing to take some sight unseen, they might be willing to work with yoiu?

"Over 90 Carats of Cabochon Gemstones + 10 Carats of Faceted Gemstones" and it's at $18.55 so far. Seller says you'll get at least 10 carats worth of gemstones and a combined retail price of over $25.00. shrug -- Linda --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Lovely! I know I've stumbled across a source somewhere. As soon as I
have time, I'll go over my bookmarks and see what I can unearth... Deirdre On Fri, 29 Aug 2003 16:10:00 -0400, "Beadbimbo" wrote: Anyone know a good source for faceted glass jewels?

Thanks for the tips everyone! That bconklin on ebay has some great looking
faceted stones. They're ovals, which I can use too, although I'd like some more retangles. Also, the Purple Finch site has some neat stuff too! -- Jerri www.beadbimbo.com To subscribe to the Beadbimbo mailing list, send a blank email to: |
