I've done the searches and found all of the sizes for *round* melee but I can't find anything on baguettes... particularly baguettes that are 3mm long and smaller. I'm trying to get my ducks lined up so I can tell people exactly what I want so I can get some estimates! BTW are baguettes all a particular l to w ratio? How do they differ from emerald cuts? (bonus questions lol) Thanks guys!!

(bonus questions lol) Thanks guys!! Baguettes are not like rounds. Rounds are sorted mostly for shapes based on the diameter mm. when baguettes are sorted on Length/ width and depths. A baguette is called a baguette when it has four straight edges and is elongated (even slightly for example 1= 1:10), thats when they are called stubby baguettes. The difference between E/C and Baguettes are mainly the corner breaks that are added to the E/C. The reason it is harder to find baguettes of the same shape assortments is most baguettes are special ordered to fit jewelry designs, unlike melee round diamonds that are available plenty. (the demand for r/s melee is huge compared to baguettes.) And special order of baguettes are more expensive than rounds, sometimes they can even triple on certain mm. sizes. ********************** |

I might go for the chunkier ones then because hehehe you know me, the bigger the facet, the bigger the rainbows!! :) Sara |
